trans-Stilbene (Catg No.: M067282) is an organic compound consisting of two phenyl groups linked by a trans-configured ethylene bridge. This colorless, crystalline solid is notable for its rigidity and conjugated π-system, making it valuable in photochemistry and fluorescence studies. It undergoes photoisomerization to its cis form under UV light and is used as a model compound in studies of molecular dynamics and optical properties. trans-Stilbene also serves as a precursor in synthesizing dyes, optical brighteners, and pharmaceutical intermediates.
