Abstract:1,4-Bis(allyloxy)-2,3,5,6-tetrachlorobenzene (II). Tetrachlorohydroquinone (62.0 grams; 0.25 mole) was dissolved in absolute methanol (270 ml.) contained in a 1-liter, roundbottomed flask equipped with a reflux condenser, pressure equalizing addition funnel, thermometer, and a mechanical stirrer.To the vigorously stirred solution maintained at 30°C. under a nitrogen atmosphere was added dropwise over a 10-minute period a solution of sodium methoxide (14.5 grams assaying 95%; 0.255 mole) dissolved in methanol (… Show more
