摘要

Considering 1-substituted benzotriazoles are good leaving groups and benzotriazolium ylides are good nucleophiles, we tried to prepare the stilbenes from the homocoupling of 1,3-disubstituted benzotriazolium salts in the presence of base. As expected, 1,2-diphenylethene (2a) was isolated in good yield (Table [¹] , entry 1) from the reaction of 1,3-dibenzylbenzotriazolium bromide 1a with KOt-Bu. In order to improve the yield of 2a, the effect of the solvent and base was ...
