Abstract

Abstract At least one alkyne compound is reacted with butadiene, piperylene and/or isoprene in the presence of the reaction product obtained by reducing a nickel(II) compound in the presence of at least one ligand material having the formula R3Z wherein Z is phosphorus or arsenic, and each R is an alkyl radical having from 1 to 12 carbon atoms with no branching nearer the Z than the second carbon atom. In a specific embodiment butadiene and acetylene are reacted in the presence of nickel(0) and tri-n-alkylphosphine to produce 5-vinylcyclohexa-1,3-diene and benzene.
