ABSTRACT:
The trans-isomer of an ethylenically unsaturated organic compound of the formula R.sup.1 CH.dbd.CHR.sup.2, in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are each a substituted or unsubstituted monovalent hydrocarbon group, is selectively prepared in a high yield by the reduction of the corresponding acetylenically unsaturated organic compound of the formula R.sup.1 C.tbd.CR.sup.2. The method comprises reducing the starting compound in a hydrocarbon solvent containing an alkali metal dispersed therein in the presence of a proton donor compound such as an alcohol or a carboxylic acid at a temerature of 50.degree. to 150.degree. C.
