Reaction Steps

4.77 g (20 mmols) of ethyl 4-chloroformylcinnamate, 4.04 g (20 mmols) of 4-bromostyrene, 2.72 g (20 mmols) of N-benzyldimethylamine and 0.0448 g (0.2 mmol) of palladium acetate are added under argon to 50 ml of p-xylene, and the reaction mixture is stirred at 130° C. for 1.5 hours. The product which has been precipitated is filtered off at room temperature and is then recrystallised from methanol. 0.73 g (10% of theory) of ethyl 4-bromostilbene-4'-acrylate is obtained in the form of yellow crystals; melting point 166.9° C.
