Reaction Steps

0.15 mol of a solution of n-BuLi in hexane is added dropwise to a mixture of 0.1 mol of 4'-n-pentyl-2,3-difluorobiphenyl (prepared from 1,2-difluorobenzene and 4-pentylcyclohexanone analogously to Example 3), in 250 ml of THF and 0.1 mol of potassium tert. butylate at -90° C. After stirring for 10 minutes at -85° C. a solution of 0.1 mol of 1-(4-propylphenyl)-2-iodoethane in 50 ml of THF and 2 ml of DMPU is added dropwise. After warming up to -40° C. and customary work-up 1-(4'-n-pentyl-2,3-difluorobiphenyl-4-yl)-2-(4-propylphenyl)-ethane is obtained.
