General description
Biphenyl (BP) is a p-polyphenyl containing two phenyl rings with a non-planar conformation. Its synthesis from benzene by intermolecular direct C-H homocoupling in the presence of palladium-containing catalytic system has been described. Stereochemical studies of its structure have been reported. The nitration of BP using 95% nitric acid to form mononitrobiphenyl isomers has been investigated.
Application
- Application of Sublimation in the Synthesis and Crystal Growth of Organosulfones: Utilizing sublimation techniques for the synthesis and growth of organosulfone crystals, this study demonstrates how biphenyl derivatives can be integrated into advanced material science applications (Refat et al., 2024).
- Bicarbazole-Benzophenone Based Twisted Donor-Acceptor Derivatives: Research on bicarbazole-benzophenone derivatives highlights their role as potential blue thermally activated delayed fluorescence emitters for OLED applications, showcasing the utility of biphenyl frameworks in the development of electronic materials (Siddiqui et al., 2024).
- Optimization of Gas Chromatography Methods for Organic Contaminants: A study details the optimization of a gas chromatography method coupled with Orbitrap mass spectrometry, emphasizing the detection of biphenyl-based organic contaminants in biological samples, crucial for environmental monitoring (Oró-Nolla et al., 2024).
- Enhanced Solubility and Bioavailability of Antifungal Agents: This investigation presents how biphenyl structures can improve the solubility and bioavailability of clotrimazole, proposing enhanced antifungal treatments through the use of hydrophobized hyperbranched polyglycidol (Jaworska-Krych et al., 2024).
- Bioremediation of Persistent Organic Pollutants: A systematic review discusses the use of microalgae-bacteria consortia for the bioremediation of biphenyl-containing persistent organic pollutants, providing a sustainable approach to environmental cleanup (Guo et al., 2024).

The first Suzuki cross-couplings of unactivated tertiary alkyl electrophiles are described. The method employs a readily accessible catalyst (NiBr(2)·diglyme/4,4'-di-tert-butyl-2,2'-bipyridine, both commercially available) and represents the initial example of the use of a group 10 catalyst to cross-couple unactivated tertiary electrophiles
