On the synthesis of dimethoxybenzyl cinnamates, monomers for electron transfer polymers

An economical way to obtain new monomers, precursors of electron transfer polymers, is described. These monomers were obtained by a Heck reaction between amino or halogeno-2,5-dimethoxydiarylmethane and methylacrylate. Different routes for the ionic reduction of various acetophenones to the corresponding diarylmethanes were studied. The yields and the nature of the by-products was stongly dependent upon the reaction conditions.

A study of hydrogenation of benzhydrols in the presence of catalytic amount of triflic acid

The ionic hydrogenation of diarylcarbinols by triethylsilane, in the presence of catalytic amount of triflic acid proceeds via dibenzhydryl ethers. These ethers do not disproportionate to benzophenones and diphenylmethanes but are reduced by triethylsilane to diarylmethanes.
