In the DMSO-potassium hydroxide system nitrobenzene adds 2 moles of acetophenone, forming (Z)-1,4-diphenyl-2-phenylamino-2-butene-1,4-dione.Acid hydrolysis of the latter gives aniline and 1,4-diphenylbutane-1,2,4-trione.

The one-pot synthesis of the title compounds (1) is achieved by reacting acetophenones and nitrobenzenes in 2-propanol with potassium 2-propoxide.The stereochemistry of the 2-butenes has been determined to be Z from an X-ray analysis.Hydrolysis and reaction with hydrazine are reported as examples of the reactivity of the title compounds.
