Emission, excitation and absorption spectra of a new and short polyene, 2-(4-phenyl-1,3-butadien-1-yl)thiophene (PBT), have been measured under different conditions by varying temperature and solvent and in the vapor phase, along with those of 2-(2-phenyl

E-alkenes were synthesized with up to 100 % E/Z selectivity via ruthenium-catalyzed partial hydrogenation of different aliphatic and aromatic alkynes under transfer-hydrogenation conditions. Paraformaldehyde as a safe, cheap and easily available solid hydrogen carrier was used for the first time as hydrogen source in the presence of water for transfer-hydrogenation of alkynes. Optimization reactions showed the best results for the commercially available binuclear [Ru(p-cymene)Cl2]2 complex as pre-catalyst in combination with 2,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1-binaphthyl (BINAP) as ligand (1 : 1 ratio per Ru monomer to ligand). Mechanistic investigations showed that the origin of E-selectivity in this reaction is the fast Z to E isomerization of the formed alkenes. Mild reaction conditions plus the use of cheap, easily available and safe materials as well as simple setup and inexpensive catalyst turn this protocol into a feasible and promising stereo complementary procedure to the well-known Z-selective Lindlar reduction in late-stage syntheses. This procedure can also be used for the production of deuterated alkenes simply using d2-paraformaldehyde and D2O mixtures.

A mild, efficient, and practical catalytic system for the synthesis of highly privileged stilbene pharmacophores is reported. This system uses N-heterocyclic carbene palladium (II) Pyridine (NHC-Pd (II)-Py) complex to catalyze the formation of carbon-carbon bonds between olefin derivatives and various bromide. This simple, gentle and user-friendly method can offer a variety of stilbene products in excellent yields under solvent-free condition. And its scale-up reaction has excellent yield and this system can be applied to industrial fields. The utility of this method is highlighted by its universality and modular synthesis of a series of bioactive molecules or important medical intermediates.
