Summary

  1. 1.

    By the reaction of the Grignard reagent from α-chloro-p-xylene with polyethoxyphenylalkanes C6H5-[CH(OC2H5-CH2]n-CH(OC2H5)2 polyethoxyphenyl-p-tolylalkanes are formed: C6H5 -[CH(OC2H5)-CH2)]n+1 -C6H4-CH3-p

  2. 2.

    By the action of aqueous-alcoholic hydrogen bromide these are converted into phenyl-p-tolyl polyenes C6H5-(CH=CH)n+1−-C6H4-CH3-p.
