Description

Trans-stilbene or (E)-stilbene is an organic compound belonging to the family of diarylethene. The ethylene is substituted by two phenyl groups. Trans-stilene is used as liquid scintillator when dissolved in organic solvents. In chemical synthesis, it is used for studying hydrogenation catalysts to reduce its double bond. More recently, trans-stilbene have been used as a building block for the synthesis of different derivative (stilbenoids), for example resveratrol and pterostilbene. These compounds have been reported as potential inhibitors against SARS-CoV-2 (Covid19) spike protein.
