A heterogeneous bifunctional polymer bearing phosphine and phenol groups was developed to catalyze the isomerization of electronically activated alkynes. This organocatalytic process provided the corresponding (E,E)-dienes and was shown to work under both batch and flow conditions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
