Abstract
Phenols are 2,6-divinylated by treatment with ethyne at 100 degrees C
in chlorobenzene in the presence of SnCl4-Bu3N, the divinylation occur
ring predominantly to exclusively with phenol, alkylphenols and alkoxy
phenols; an appropriate amount of the tin reagent and the correct reac
tion temperature are essential for the divinylation.
