A facile and highly efficient microwave-assisted synthesis of functionalized chalcones and flavanones based on the Claisen-Schmidt condensation reaction is reported. The method describes the synthesis of flavanones in single step with excellent yield and it was revealed that position and number of substituents on acetophenones and aromatic aldehydes played a very crucial and key role in the construction of flavanone derivatives. Among the thirty two synthesized compounds, five chalcones and one flavanone were novel compounds.
Cyclization of hydrazones derived from 2-acetyl-1-naphthol and 1-acetyl-2-naphthol with triphosgene gave naphtho[1,2-e]-1,3-oxazines, naphtho[2,1-e]-1,3-oxazines or their spiro dimers depending on the molar ratio of triphosgene used for the cyclization.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
