Diphenylbutadiyne is the
hydrocarbon with the
formula (C6H5C2)2. It is a
member of the
diyne chemical class and can be made via the
Glaser coupling of...
- Glaser [de] in 1869. He
suggested the
following process on his way to
diphenylbutadiyne: CuCl + PhC2H + NH3 → PhC2Cu + NH4Cl 4 PhC2Cu + O2 → 2PhC2C2Ph + 2Cu2O...
- base and copper(II) salts, it
undergoes oxidative coupling to give
diphenylbutadiyne. In the
presence of
metal catalysts, it
undergoes oligomerization...

together with
small dienes, such as 1,3-Diisopropylbenzene(DIB), 1,4-
diphenylbutadiyne, limonene,
divinylbenzene (DVB), dicyclopentadiene, styrene, 4-vinylpyridine...

undergoes oxidative dimerization in the
presence of air to
produce diphenylbutadiyne (C6H5−C≡C−C≡C−C6H5).
Interest in
these compounds has
