Cover Story: The novel C2-symmetric biphenyl derivative, 5,5′-di((E)-buta-1,3-dien-1-yl)-2,2′,3,3′-tetramethoxy-1,1′-biphenyl (1), was synthesized via a microwave-assisted protocol starting from a vanillin-derived precursor. The reaction proceeded with high stereoselectivity, yielding the target compound exclusively in the (E,E) configuration. This molecule displays significant stereochemical complexity. The presence of a C2 symmetry axis, combined with its distinct conformational and configurational features, contributes to its unique structural profile. These characteristics are likely to impact its potential utility in stereoselective synthesis or molecular recognition processes. A comprehensive structural and spectroscopic characterization of compound 1 is presented, emphasizing its novel features and the efficiency of the synthetic strategy. View this paper
