  trans-4-Nitrostilbene (CAS NO.1694-20-8) is used as pesticide.

A poison by intraperitoneal route. Mutation data reported. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic vapors of NO_x.

  trans-4-Nitrostilbene (CAS NO.1694-20-8)  in the presence of N, N-dimethylaniline forms donor-acceptor complexes and slowly goes over to the trans form; the stability of this complex is approximately four times as great as that of the complex of N,N-dimethylaniline with nitrobenzene.
