Simple and efficient procedure for alkylation of aromatics from alcohols in the presence of NaHSO4/SiO2 was developed. Various triaryl methanes were obtained in good yields in short reaction time. For instance the reaction of mesitylene with benzhydrol in the presence of NaHSO4/SiO2 gave the corresponding triaryl methane in a quantitative yield. NaHSO4/SiO2 was regenerated by simple treatment and could be recycled eight times without activity loss.

Primary and secondary benzylic carbocations, stabilized by a tricarbonylchromium group, gave coupling products with several aromatics or β-dicarbonyl compounds in good yield and this reaction presents a new synthetic method for carbon-carbon bond formation.The chromium complexes of tertiary benzyl alcohols gave dehydrated products without carbon-carbon coupling products under similar conditions.
Anomalous Acetoxylation of Aromatic Nuclei: Some Structural Requirements in the Substrate

For certain aromatic nuclei, bromination in acetic acid in the presence of pyridine is accompanied by nuclear acetoxylation.As first observed with galbulin, when two alkoxyl groups, one meta and one para to a benzylic centre of the substrate are present, acetoxylation occurs at the intervening ortho position.Under the given conditions, acetoxylation occurs at position 8 of 6,7-dimethoxy-1-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene, and at position 2 of 3,4-dimethoxy diphenyl and triphenyl-methanes.Acetoxylation does not occur in the absence of either of the alkoxy groups or in the absence of pyridine, not does it occur in the pendant ring of 1-(3',4'-dimethoxyphenyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene.These results are consistent with the earlier suggestion that the reaction occurs by way of initial oxidative formation of a doubly benzylic cation
