Biphenyl (also known as diphenyl, phenylbenzene, 1,1′-biphenyl, lemonene [4] or BP) is an organic compound that forms colorless crystals. Particularly in older literature, compounds containing the functional group consisting of biphenyl less one hydrogen (the site at which it is attached) may use the prefixes xenyl or diphenylyl .
The industrial synthesis of 4,4′-biphenol was developed by Allan Hay in the 1960s. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] As the direct oxidative coupling of phenol gives a mixture of isomers, [ 4 ] [ 5 ] 4,4′-biphenol is instead prepared from 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol , where para-coupling is the only possibility. [ 3 ]
The bisphenols (/ ˈ b ɪ s f ɪ n ɒ l /) are a group of industrial chemical compounds related to diphenylmethane; commonly used in the creation of plastics and epoxy resins. [1] [2] [3] Most are based on two hydroxyphenyl functional groups linked by a methylene bridge.
The 1,2,3- and 1,2,4-triazines are more specialized methods. The former family of triazines can be synthesized by thermal rearrangement of 2-azidocyclopropenes. Also mainly of specialized interest, the 1,2,4-isomer is prepared from condensation of 1,2-dicarbonyl compounds with amidrazones .
In enzymology, a biphenyl synthase (EC 2.3.1.177) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction: . 3 malonyl-CoA + benzoyl-CoA 4 CoA + 3,5-dihydroxybiphenyl + 4 CO 2. Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are malonyl-CoA and benzoyl-CoA, whereas its three products are CoA, 3,5-dihydroxybiphenyl, and CO 2.

This is then diazotized, then reacted with ethanol to replace the diazonium group with hydrogen, forming 1,3,5-tribromobenzene. [3] It has also been prepared by these methods: [3] replacement of the amino group of 3,5-dibromoaniline with bromine; the action of light on bromoacetylene, effecting an alkyne trimerisation to 1,3,5-tribromobenzene
BINAP (2,2′-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1′-binaphthyl) is an organophosphorus compound. This chiral diphosphine ligand is widely used in asymmetric synthesis . It consists of a pair of 2-diphenylphosphino naphthyl groups linked at the 1 and 1′ positions.
