“…Trans-stilbene (C45a) gave vicinal dichloride (C46a), while hydroxychlorination took place in the case of 1,1-diphenyl (C45b) and 1,1,2-triphenyl ethene (C45c, Scheme C11). Chlorination also took place when treating 1,2-diphenylacetilene and anthracene with this reagent and 1,2-diphenyl-1,2-dichloroethene (C48) or 9,10-dichloro anthracene (C50) were isolated, respectively [69].…”
