The reaction of cyclohexylmethylmagnesium bromide (II) with 1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis(4-chlorophenyl)- and 1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-ethanes (Ia,b) follows mainly a reduction pathway to give the corresponding dichloroethanes (IIIa,b) and the butenes, 1,1,4,4-tetrakis(4-chlorophenyl)- and 1,1,4,4-tetrakis(4-methoxyphenyl)-2,3-dichlorobut-2-enes (IVa and IVb).However, in the case of Ib, 1,1,4,4-tetrakis(4-methoxyphenyl)-2,2,3,3-tetrachlorobutane (Vb) has also been obtained.Magnesium subiodide does not effect the reduction of I.
