Abstract:

Four new monoalkylsubstituted homologs of benzene have been synthesized and characterized according to their principal physicochemical properties. Their catalytic hydrogenation produced 4 new monoalkylsubstituted homologs of cyclohexane with 1 or 2 quaternary C atoms in the side chain 2,4dimethyl-4-cyclohexyloctane 2,6-dimethyl-4propyl-4-cyclohexylheptane 2,2,4,6-tetramethyl4-cyclohexylheptane and 2,2,5-trimethyl-3cyclohexylhexa e. The density of the synthesized cyclanes ranged from 0.8392 to 0.8450 which considerably exceeds the density of monoalkylsubstituted homologs of cyclohexane of the same composition with a normal or weakly ramified side chain. As intermediate products of the synthesis, 5 tertiary alcohols were obtained for the first time 2,6-dimethyl-4-propylheptadiene-1,6-o1-4 2,6-dimethyl-4-propylheptanol-4 2,5,5-trimethyl4-phenylhexene-1-o1-4 2,2,4,6-tetramethylheptene-6-o1-4 and 2,2,4,6-tetramethylheptanol4.
