“…In only three instances was intact alkylation accomplished (10,27,28). Later, it was reported (19) that by proper choice of catalyst and conditions, either depolyalkylation or intact alkylation could be made to predominate, but no data were given regarding intact alkylation with diisobutene.…”

Section: Polyisobutyl Derivatives Of Unactivated Arenesmentioning
General synthetic approaches to functional derivatives of polyisobutylene (PIB) that contain arene groups that can be used as catalysts or as precursors to catalyst ligands are discussed. The emphasis is on reactions that use commercially available terminally functionalized PIB derivatives as starting materials. Both successful and unsuccessful electrophilic aromatic substitution processes are described, and potential problems of this process and ways to circumvent the problem of depolymerization of the intermediate polyisobutyl cation in substitutions of less reactive arenes are detailed. Examples that lead to polyisobutyl-containing arenes that are known and potentially useful as ligands or ligand precursors for greener homogeneous catalysts that are phase-selectively soluble and recoverable in heptane are emphasized.Scheme 2 Synthesis of a tertiary alcohol-terminated PIB that does not terminate in a diisobutylene group. The overall yield of 15 in this sequence varied between 28-34 %.
IMPORTANT developments have been made in specific areas of application and study of the Friedel-Crafts reactions but the most significant advance has come through the greatly increased number and variety of applications.The essential features of the pattern established for the 1955 Review have been continued.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
