112triphenylethene

112triphenylethene is an organic compound with the chemical formula C20H16. It is a derivative of ethene where three hydrogen atoms have been substituted by phenyl groups. Specifically, two phenyl groups are attached to one carbon atom of the ethene double bond, and one phenyl group is attached to the other carbon atom. The structure can be represented as (C6H5)2C=CHC6H5. This arrangement leads to a molecule with a central ethene core and three aromatic rings.

The physical properties of 112triphenylethene include its appearance, melting point, and solubility. It is typically a solid at room temperature. Its synthesis can be achieved through various organic reactions, often involving the coupling of appropriate precursors. For instance, reactions involving triphenylmethyl halides or related compounds can be employed.

112triphenylethene has been investigated for its optical and electronic properties. The presence of the conjugated pi system involving the ethene double bond and the phenyl rings contributes to its electronic characteristics. It can exhibit fluorescence, and its photophysical behavior is of interest in research related to organic electronics and materials science. Due to its structure, it can exist as stereoisomers, specifically E and Z isomers, although the steric hindrance between the bulky phenyl groups might influence the stability and interconversion of these isomers.
