Abstract

Novel one-pot synthesis of trans-stilbene comprises hydrogenation of diphenylacetylene into cis-stilbene followed by its hydroisomerization, over the catalyst being intermetallic PdxIny/Al2O3 system with isolated single-atom Pd1 sites. The hydroisomerization rate in the process is comparable or exceeds the over-hydrogenation into 1,2-diphenylethane thus providing 76% yield of trans-stilbene in the case of Pd2In3/Al2O3 catalyst. This result presumably stems from the formation of ordered single-atom Pd1 sites with favorable hydroisomerization ability on the surface of PdxIny catalysts.
