Nuclear Heptylation of Benzene and Naphthalene and Cyclopentylation of Toluene

Thermal decomposition of 1-, 2-, 3- and 4-heptyltoluene-p-sulphonates in the presence of aromatic substrates like benzene or naphthalene at 130-35 deg, affords differently substituted α- and β-isomers in the case of naphthalene.Skeletal isomerisation of the alkyl group is observed where different isomeric 1-, 2-, 3- and 4-heptyl-aromatics are obtained.Also thermal decomposition of cyclopentylmethane sulphonate in the presence of toluene at 130-35 deg, furnishes the corresponding o-, m- and p-substituted toluenes.The isomers have been identified and estimated quantitatively by GLC.
