Abstract

AbstractThe oxidation of 1,1‐diphenylethylene by chromic acid gives a fair yield of diphenylacetic acid. 1,1‐Di‐(p‐chlorophenyl)ethylene and 2‐phenylprop‐1‐ene are similarly oxidised to acids which have the same number of carbon atoms as the original olefins. 2‐Phenyl‐3,3‐dimethylbut‐1‐ene and 1,1‐di‐(p‐tolyl)ethylene give abnormal fission products on chromic acid oxidation. The significcane of these results is discussed.
