Description Research Excerpts Clinical Trials Roles Classes Pathways Study Profile Bioassays Related Drugs Related Conditions Protein Interactions Research Growth Market Indicators

Tetraphenylmethane is a hydrocarbon with the formula (C6H5)4C. This compound is of interest in organic chemistry for several reasons:
* It is a highly symmetrical molecule with a central carbon atom bonded to four phenyl groups.
* Its synthesis involves the use of Grignard reagents, which are important reagents in organic chemistry.
* It is a relatively stable compound despite having four bulky phenyl groups attached to a single carbon atom.
* Its structure and properties have been studied in detail to understand the effects of steric hindrance on chemical reactivity.
* Tetraphenylmethane is also used as a standard in some analytical techniques.'
