Description
It is a diarylketone derivative. It has topologically pseudogenerate Π-LUMO′s (lowest unoccupied molecular orbital). Its synthesis from benzene has been reported. Crystal structure studies suggest that its crystals are orthorhombic and exhibit space goup Pbca.It is suitable reagent used in the synthesis of 1,3-bis(1-phenylvinyl)benzene (MDDPE).It may be used in the synthesis of polyanionic spin-quintet molecular clusters and ground state undecet hydrocarbon with 10 parallel spins
