On the Gas Phase Pyrolysis of α, ω-Phenylalkenes - Regularities and Special FeaturesThe thermal conversion of the α, ω-phenyl alkenes 1 to 4 was studied in the presence of a molar excess of Ar or steam at 500 to 875°C in a labscale tubular reactor. Detailed GC analyses did not establish significant evidences for such molecular rearrangements like, e.g., Di-π-methane rearrangement of 2, Ene and Carbo-Claisen reaction of 3. The decomposition obviously occurs via radical chain processes in the main. Besides them, however, radical cyclizations, Neophyl rearrangements and Retro-Ene reactions are parts of the complex reaction.
