Reaction conditions: 10 mL of benzene (or equivalent mole of substituted benzene), 0.5 mL of benzyl chloride, and 100 mg of catalyst. The conversion was calculated from benzyl chloride. bTime required for complete conversion of benzyl chloride. cDiphenylmethane. d(o-) 2-Methyl diphenylmethane, (p-) 4-methyl diphenylmethane. e2,5-Dimethyl diphenylmethane. f2,3-Dimethyl diphenylmethane. g(o-) 2-Ethyl diphenylmethane, (p-) 4-ethyl diphenylmethane. h2,4,6-Trimethyl diphenylmethane. i(o-) 2-Methoxy diphenylmethane, (p-) 4-methoxy diphenylmethane. |
