trans,trans-1,4-Distyrylbenzene was converted finally into 1,4-di(phenylglyoxaloyl)benzene by methoxybromination of the double bonds with N-bromosuccinimide in methanol, dehydrobromination, hydrolysis, and oxidation of the intermediate products.The methoxybromination is stereoselective but not regioselective.
