Disclosed herein a process preparation of 2,6-dichlorobenzonitrile. A process of making high yield, high purity 2,6-dichlorobenzonitrile including the selective de-nitrochlorination of 2-chloro-6-nitrobenzonitrile by treatment of the 2-chloro-6-nitrobenzonitrile with chlorine gas.

The present disclosure provides for a rhodium-catalyzed oxidative arene alkenylation from arenes and styrenes to prepare stilbene and stilbene derivatives. For example, the present disclosure provides for method of making arenes or substituted arenes, in particular stilbene and stilbene derivatives, from a reaction of an optionally substituted arene and/or optionally substituted styrene. The reaction includes a Rh catalyst or Rh pre-catalyst material and an oxidant, where the Rh catalyst or Rh catalyst formed Rh pre-catalyst material selectively functionalizes CH bond on the arene compound (e.g., benzene or substituted benzene).
