Sodium dispersion-mediated reductive dimerization of benzylic halides for symmetrical bibenzyls: Column-free applications to natural products

We report a method for the synthesis of symmetrical bibenzyls by the reductive dimerization of benzylic halides using sodium dispersion (SD). SD, a reagent consisting of sodium particles dispersed in mineral oil, has recently attracted attention as a safer but more reactive source of sodium than sod...
