Abstract

I I1 This substance contains two conjugated systems, one that of an a,@-unsaturated ketone and the other that of a diene, so should enter into a diene synthesis with itself. Assuming that it did so, it was possible to write the structure (111) for the bimolecular product; its correctness was then verified by a long series of reactions that ultimately gave o- diphenylbenzene.
