Popis: | Reduction of perylene with potassium metal in tetrahydrofuran at room temperature yields the dianion, as determined by potassium metal uptake, by 1H NMR of the anion solution, and by product analysis of a methyl iodide quench. There is no evidence for decomposition of the solvent, either to a butoxy fragment or to an ethyl-ene/enolate mixture, a result which is in contrast to previously reported work on the naphthalene/alkali metal/tetrahydrofuran systems. |
