Upon alkaline dehydrochlorination in diethyleneglycol, 1,1-dichloro-2,2-bis(p-chloro-phenyl)ethane (DDD) and its analogs are converted to diarylmethanes. Mo(CO)/sub 6/ catalyzes the intramolecular rearrangement of DDD and the dehydrochlorination of the product, 1,2-bis(4-chlorophenyl)-1,2-dichloroethane to 1-chloro-1,2-bis(4-chloro-phenyl)ethylene. A two-step procedure was proposed for the synthesis of 1,2-diarylacetylenes involving dehydrochlorination of DDD compounds by the action of Mo(CO)/sub 6/ to give 1-chloro-1,2-diarylethylenes and their subsequent alkaline dehydrochlorination.
