Summary 1. The following previously undescribed hydrocarbons were prepared: 2-(cyclohexylmethyl)biphenyl, 3-(cyclohexylmethyl)biphenyl, 4-(cyclohexylmethyl)biphenyl, p-biscyclohexylmethylbenzene, 2-(cyclohexylmethyl)bicyclohexyl, 3-(cyclohexylmethyl)bicyclohexyl, 4-(cyclohexylmethyl)bicyclohexyl, 1,2-biscyclohexylmethylcyclohexane, 1,4-biscyclohexylmethylcyclohexane,α,α′-bis-o-benzylphenylxylene, and 1,4-bis[[4-(cyclohexylmethyl)cyclohexyljmethyl] cyclohexane. 2. The hydrogenation of dibenzylbenzenes andα,α′-bisbenzylphenylxylenes of various structure goes in various ways. Thus, under identical conditions of hydrogenation over PtO2 in 2-, 3-, and 4-benzylbiphenyls only one ring is hydrogenated, in p-dibenzylbenzene two rings are hydrogenated, and in α,α′-bis-p-benzylphenyl-p-xylene all five rings are hydrogenated. The selective hydrogenation ofα,α′-bis-p-benzylphenyl-p-xylene could not be effected, either over PtO2 or over Raney nickel.
