General description

Bicyclohexyl, also known as Dicyclohexyl, is a non-volatile liquid with two cyclohexane rings joined by a single carbon-carbon bond.

Application

Bicyclohexyl can be used as a reactant:      
  • To synthesize 1-azido-1,1′-bi(cyclohexane) by Mn-catalyzed oxidative azidation method using nucleophilic NaN3 as an azide source.      
  • To prepare 1-fluoro-1,1′-bicyclohexyl using elemental fluorine.   
  • In the aliphatic Friedel-Crafts reaction to prepare novel bicyclohexyl based oxygenated building block via C-H activation with aluminum trichloride and acetyl chloride.
