Synthesis of Stilbene Derivatives: A Comparative Study of their Antioxidant Activities
Abstract:
A series of structurally simple compounds belonging to thestilbene family were synthesized by means of a Ti(III)-mediated methodology that allows access, in an efficient manner, to derivatives of dihydrostilbene, E-stilbene, and stilbene oxide, with high yields. The antioxidant activity of these compounds has been evaluated by means of two electrochemical assays, which provide complementary information, showing that the majority of these stilbene analogs exhibit significant antioxidant activity dependent on the electronic structure and functionalization of the molecule in each case.

Conformation
The simplest example of a diene is 1,3-butadiene, an acyclic conjugated π system. At room temperature, the molecule exists as a mixture of s-cis and s-trans conformers by virtue of rotation around the carbon–carbon single bond. Although the s-trans isomer is more stable,...
