A Facile Synthesis of 2,6-Octadienedioic and 2,4,8,10-Dodecatetraenedioic Acids by Oxidative Coupling of 2-Butenoic or 2,4-Hexadenoic Acids

Abstract
Oxidative coupling of the dianions of 2-alkenoic and 2,4-alkadienoic acids with silver nitrate or iodine provides a convenient and facile preparation of 2,6-octadienedioic and 2,4,8,10-dodecatetraenedioic acids, respectively.
