✦ Synopsis

The reaction in tetrahydrofuran between the disodium salt of anthracene (A) and alkyl dihalides (RX2) results in oligomeric products with a repeat unit --[A--R]--. The same reaction with the dilithium derivative is complicated by the high reactivity of this species toward solvent; oligomers with ---(CH2)4OH end groups are isolated. The xylylene dihalides undergo metallation and Wurtz coupling, and they produce low yields of oligomers rich in xylylene units.

The reaction with dilithium acenaphthylene and alkyl dihalides gives a high yield of copolymer but there is evidence ofcrosslinking. Although addition occurs principally across the 1,2 position, some 1,5 addition is believed to cause this crosslinking.

With dilithium phenanthrene the reaction is mainly one of electron transfer; the oligomers produced in low yield are low in phenanthrene adducts.

When a tetrahydrofuran solution of styrene or ~-methylstyrene (M) and anthracene (A) is reacted with alkali metal, anionic species are produced which can be titrated with alkyl dibromides (RBr2) to produce copolymers. These copolymers have been analysed structurally by NMR spectroscopy and by a mode

The reactions of alkali metal salts of anthracene with alkyl halides result in the formation of 9,10-dialkyl 9,10-dihydroanthracenes as the principal product, although appreciable quantities of other adducts, notably the 1,2-and 1,4-dialkyl compounds, are also formed. When the disodium salt is used
