The oxidation of mixtures of diarylacetylene ArC≡CAr and Ar′C≡CAr′ in a system CF3CO2H-CH 2Cl2-PbO2 (0°C, 1.5 h) results in products of cross-dimerization, (Z)-1,2,3,4-tetraarylbut-2-ene-1,4-diones Ar(ArCO) C=C(COAr′)Ar′. The routes of transformation of intermediate cation-radicals of diarylacetylenes [ArC≡CAr]+? into the final products of oxidative dimerization are elucidated. By cyclic voltammetry and ESR spectroscopy the high reactivity of the diarylacetylene cation-radicals is demonstrated, the character of their singly occupied molecular orbitals (a2 or b1) has been revealed by ESR method.

Oxidation of symmetrical diarylacetylenes in the CF3COOH-CH2Cl2-PbO2 system (0-20 deg C, 1-3 h) yields 1,2,3,4-tetraaryl-2-butene-1,4-diones.According to (1)H NMR and GC-MS data the compounds synthesized have Z configuration.
