1,8-Bis(diphenylphosphino)anthracene (1) was prepared in a three-step synthesis in 51% overall yield starting from 1,8-dichloro-9,10-anthraquinone (8). Compound 8 was converted by chlorine-fluorine exchange and reduction with zinc into 1,8-difluoroanthracene (7) from which 1 was obtained by reaction with potassium 1,8-bis(dimethylamino)anthracene (10) clearly showed that in the case of 7 direct nucleophilic displacement (addition-elimination mechanism) dominates over aryne formation (elimination-addition mechanism). Single crystal X-ray structure analyses are reported for 1 and 10.
