Abstract
Biphenyl derivatives and processes for the preparation of biphenyl derivatives are described. A compound of formula (I) is disclosed ##STR1## in which the substituent X is --CHO or --CH(OR.sup.1)OR.sup.2, where R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 independently of one another are (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)-alkyl or R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 together are an alkylene group (--CH.sub.2).sub.n --, where n is 2, 3 4 or 5 and R is --F, --Cl, --NO.sub.2, --(CH.sub.2).sub.m --COOR.sup.3, --(CH.sub.2).sub.m --CONHR.sup.3, --(CH.sub.2).sub.m --CN, --SO.sub.2 NH--COOR.sup.3, --SO.sub.2 NH--CO--NHR.sup.3, --SO.sub.2 NH--SO.sub.2 --R.sup.3, --NHSO.sub.2 R.sup.3, ##STR2## --PO.sub.3 R.sup.3, --NH--SO.sub.2 --CF.sub.3, --SO.sub.2 NR.sup.4 where R.sup.3 is hydrogen, (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)-alkyl, (C.sub.3 -C.sub.6)cycloalkyl, or (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)-alkyl-(C.sub.3 -C.sub.6)cycloalkyl and R.sup.4 is a group .dbd.C--N(CH.sub.3).sub.2, and m is 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4. The invention also relates to a process for the preparation of a compound of the formula (I) in which X is an optionally protected formyl group and R is a group which is itself inert to the reaction conditions of the synthesis, which comprises reacting a compound of the formula (II) ##STR3## with a substituted phenyl-halogen compound of the formula (III) ##STR4## wherein the substituent Hal is a halogen group.
