Decakis(bromomethyl)biphenyl (3) has been prepared by reaction of decamethylbiphenyl with Br2/CCl4 in the presence of tetrabutylammonium bromide as catalyst.The attempted synthesis of decakis(bromomethyl)benzophenone resulted only in bromopentakis(bromomethyl)benzene (8).X-ray diffraction of a single crystal of 3 shows that the preferred conformation of 3 is not the alternate "up-down" conformation observed for the parent hexakis(bromomethyl)benzene, but a conformation in which the up-down alternation of the CH2Br groups is disrupted at the meta-para positions of each ring.MM2(85) calculations on 3 indicate that some conformations with disrupted "up-down" alternation of the CH2Br groups are favored over the all-alternate up-down form.It is suggested that this conformational shift is the result of the mutual steric interactions between arms of different moieties, and that syn interactions between m- and p-CH2Br groups operate in order to avoid bromine contacts between ortho groups at different rings.The barrier for Ar-CH2Br rotation was estimated from dynamic NMR data as 12.5 kcal mol-1.
