Abstract

Friedel–Crafts acylation, bromination, deuteration, and nitration of acetylpentamethylbenzene (APMB), 1-acetyl-2, 3, 4, 6-tetramethylbenzene (ATMB), and 1- benzoyl-2, 3, 4, 6-tetramethylbenzene (BTMB) and the resulting product distributions were investigated. Friedel–Crafts acylation, bromination, and deuteration of APMB and Friedel– Crafts acylation of ATMB gave deacetylation-substitution products. On the other hand, ...
