Synthesis of highly substituted alkenes by sulfur-mediated olefination of N-tosylhydrazones

Abstract Tetraphenylethylenes (TPEs) are well-known for their aggregation-induced emission properties. The synthesis of TPE derivatives, as well as other highly substituted olefins, generally requires the use of hazardous reagents, such as metalorganic compounds, to overcome the high activation ener...
