We have developed a sequential and selective Pd-catalyzed double-Heck arylation of ethylene that results in non-symmetrical nitro-stilbene analogs of trans-resveratrol at excellent yields. A catalytic system consisting of Pd(OAc)2 and P(o-tolyl)3 permitted us to carry out the two consecutive Heck arylations without losing activity from the first to the second Heck reaction. After the first Heck arylation of ethylene, no isolation or additional catalyst loading is required for the second Heck arylation reaction. This protocol was applied to the synthesis of methylated trans-resveratrol, which was obtained at a 65% overall yield. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
