Abstract

Abstract The present invention relates to novel biphenyl compounds of the formula ##STR1## wherein one of R 1 and R 2 is hydrogen and the other is --CH 3-m X m wherein X is chloro or bromo and m is an integer one or two, and the cyclic moiety A is a -2,5-; -2,3-; or -3,4-di-OR-1-phenyl moiety wherein R is a hydroxy-protecting group and to a method of preparing same. The biphenyl compounds are useful as intermediates in preparing redox compounds containing a phenylhydroquinone or phenylcatechol moiety.
