The Friedel-Craftsacetylation of several (arene)tricarbonylchromium complexes have been investigated. From the results it is concluded that the tricarbonylchromium group deactivates to a small extent towards electrophilic substitution the ring to which it is attached. In the case of tricarbonyl(diphenylmethane)chromium (1; n= 1), however, attack occurred on both rings to about an equal extent; possible

The orientation of the two phenyl rings in alpha,omega-diphenylalkanes with rigid carbon skeletons is investigated through characterization of the crystal and molecular structures of 1,3-diphenyladamantane (1) and trans-1,4-diphenylcyclohexane (2). The two phenyl rings in 1 have different conformations about the C-Ph bonds, with torsion angles between the phenyl ring and the C1-C2-C3 plane of 0.65 and 71.7degrees. A hydrogen atom at the meta-position of one of the phenyl rings contact intermolecularly with a tertiary hydrogen atom at C5 of adamantane within the sum of van der Waals radii. Due to the helical conformation, the short (CHHC)-H-... contacts (2.231 Angstrom) construct supramolecular triple helical strands. In contrast to 1, the phenyl rings in 2 have identical configurations, with equatorial position and bisected conformation as expected from density functional calculations. The molecular packing of 2 exhibits a herringbone pattern of (aromatic)CH. H(...)pi contacts. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
