Oligostilbenes
Oligostilbenoids (oligo- or polystilbenes) are oligomeric forms of stilbenoids. Some molecules are large enough to be considered polyphenols and constitute a class of tannins.

Cis-stilbene
(''Z'')-Stilbene is a diarylethene, that is, a hydrocarbon consisting of a cis ethene double bond substituted with a phenyl group on both carbon atoms of the double bond. The name stilbene was derived from the Greek word , which means shining. Isomers Stilbene exists as two possible isomers known as (''E'')-stilbene and (''Z'')-stilbene. (''Z'')-Stilbene is sterically hindered and less stable because the steric interactions force the aromatic rings 43° out-of-plane and prevent conjugation. (''Z'')-Stilbene has a melting point of , while (''E'')-stilbene melts around , illustrating that the two compounds are quite different. Uses * Stilbene is used in manufacture of dyes and optical brighteners, and also as a phosphor and a scintillator. * Stilbene is one of the gain mediums used in dye lasers. Properties * Stilbene will typically have the chemistry of a diarylethene, a conjugated alkene. * Stilbene can undergo photoisomerization under the influence of UV light. * Stilbene ca ...
