Abstract
An alternative heterogeneously palladium catalysed procedure for the synthesis of functional stilbenes and bibenzyls is reported. Starting from aryl bromides and using simple commercially available Pd/C catalyst at a low catalytic rate (1 mol%), stilbenes are obtained with 30-100% GC-yields and bibenzyls are produced in a one-pot fashion with 27-100% GC-yields. The procedure showed, however, some limitations when applied to strongly deactivated aryl bromides that could be in some extent overcome by using corresponding iodo derivatives.
Keywords: Stilbene synthesis, bibenzyl synthesis, one-pot synthesis, heterogeneous palladium catalyst
