Styrene → 1-Iodo-3-(2-phenylethenyl)benzene

Participants

Reaction Steps

The procedure described in Example 1 is followed, except that 26.65 g (0.1 mol) of 3-iodobenzoyl chloride, 13 g (0.125 mol) of styrene, 12.93 g (0.1 mol) of ethyl-diisopropylamine and 0.575 g (0.001 mol) of bis-(dibenzylidene-acetone)-palladium(O) are used. After a reaction time of 3 hours at the reflux temperature in 150 ml of propionitrile, 3.05 g (0.01 mol) of 3-iodostilbene, corresponding to a yield of 10% of theory, are obtained; melting point 96° C.
