Procedure
A mixture of 6,6'-dihydroxy[1,1'biphenyl]-3,3'-dicarbonitrile (11.8 g), sodium carbonate (10.6 g), and 1,2-dibromoethane (8.4 g) in 250 ml of anhydrous dimethylformamide is heated at 150° C for 18 hours under nitrogen. The reaction mixture is poured into water and extracted with three 200 ml portions of dichloromethane. The dichloromethane extracts are combined and washed with 10% sodium hydroxide, water, and brine. The solution is filtered through 100 ml of silica gel and concentrated. The resultant solid is recrystallized from benzene to yield 3.5 g of the title compound, melting point 195-196° C.
