Abstract
Stilbene-4,4'-dialdehyde can be produced by reaction of ethylene with 4-bromobenzaldehyde in the presence of a base and of a palladium compound as catalyst in a simple and economical manner in high yields, by performing the reaction under a partial pressure of ethylene of 0.01 to 1 bar. The stilbene-4,4'-dialdehyde obtained is suitable for example for producing optical brighteners.
