Synthesis of arylethylene derivatives of 2, 5-diphenyl-1, 3, 4-oxadiazole
The synthesis of arylethylene derivatives of 2,5-diphenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole by the Wittig reaction from 2-(p-bromomethylphenyl)-5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole and aromatic aldehydes is described. The compounds obtained fluoresce strongly on irradiation with UV light.
