Article Description

Useful derivatives of tetraphenylmethane and tetraphenylsilane have been synthesized by efficient methods that give crystalline products without chromatographic purification. New compounds include tetrakis(4-hydroxyphenyl)-methane (21), tetrakis(4-formylphenyl)methane (22), tetrakis[(4-hydroxymethyl)phenyl]methane (23), tetrakis(4-bromophenyl)silane (24), tetrakis(4-iodophenyl)silane (25), tetrakis(4-hydroxyphenyl)silane (26), tetrakis[(4-hydroxymethyl)-phenyl]silane (27), and tetrakis[(4-chloromethyl)phenyl]silane (28). These compounds are valuable precursors for the construction of complex molecules with tetrahedral geometries.
