| The formation of conjugated dienes occurs when free radicals attack the hydrogens of methylene groups separating double bonds and leading to a rearrangement of the bonds. |
| Rhodium carboxylate-catalyzed decomposition of 2-diazobutenoates in the presence of alkenes or dienes results in highly diastereoselective cyclopropanations. |
| The amount of conjugated dienes is directly proportional to the amount of hydroperoxides formed as the major initial product of a lipid peroxidation reaction. |
| However, trienes, whether substituted or not, are only extremely weakly fluorescent, whereas dienes are considered as nonfluorescent. |
| While supplementation was able to reduce thiobarbituric reactive substances, it was only able to slightly lower the quantity of conjugated dienes formed. |
| In addition, zinc sulfide, cyclic sulfides,and conjugated dienes and trienes form when reversion occurs. |
