An efficient synthesis of stereodefined tetrasubstituted acyclic all-carbon olefins has been developed via a bis(2,6-xylyl)phosphate formation of stereoenriched tertiary alcohols, followed by in situ syn-elimination of the corresponding phosphates under mild conditions. This chemistry tolerates a wide variety of electronically and sterically diverse substrates and generates the desired tetrasubstituted olefins in high yields and stereoselectivities (>95:5) in most cases. This stereocontrolled olefin synthesis has been applied to the synthesis of anticancer drug tamoxifen in three steps from commercially available 1,2-diphenylbutan-1-one in 97:3 stereoselectivity and 78% overall yield.

1,1,2-Triphenylbut-1-enes, which are substituted with acetoxy groups on one, two, or three aromatic rings in the para and/or meta positions, were synthesized.The identity of the occurring E and Z isomers were established by 1H NMR spectroscopy.A study on structure-activity relationships was carried out with regard to estradiol receptor affinity and to inhibiting effects on the growth of a postmenopausal human mammary carcinoma implanted in nude mice.The para-substituted compounds generally exhibited a higher receptor affinity and a better antitumor activity than the corresponding meta-substituted ones.The E isomers were superior to the respective Z isomers in those two properties.The tumor-inhibiting effect of the mono-and disubstituted compounds was better than that of the trisubstituted ones.Except for the trisubstituted compounds, they all showed a good correlation between estradiol receptor affinity and antitumor activity.One of the compounds was also tested on the 9,10-dimethylbenzanthracene-induced, hormone-dependent mammary carcinoma of the Spraque-Dawley rat, and the results corresponded to those obtained in the xenograft tumor.
