SYNTHESIS AND REACTIVITY IN INORGANIC AND METAL-ORGANIC CHEMISTRY
A facile synthesis, separation and characterization of Meulenhoff's free ac
id (HBB) derived from 1,1'-biphenyl-2,2'-diol were described. HBB, prepared
by refluxing a mixture of 1,1'-biphenyl-2,2'-diol and boric acid in benzen
e for 3 h, reacted with bulky alkaloids (quinine, quinidine, cinchonine, ci
nchonidine, brucine and strychnine) in equimolar ratio in benzene or chloro
form under reflux to give spiro[6,6]borate complexes in 72-99 % yields, The
ir IR and H-1 NMR spectral characteristics are presented and discussed.
