Abstract

Aromatic hydrocarbons, phenols and phenolic ethers in the presence of aluminum chloride react with p-quinone dibenzenrsulfonimides to give 2-aryl-p- phenylenedibenzenesulfonamides in yields of 26 to 67y0. In the addition of bydrocarbons, it is essential that the quinone diimide be added to the aluminum chloride in the hydrocarbon; addition of the aluminum chloride to the hydrocarbon solution of the quinone diimide ...
