ABSTRACT

We here reports a modified improved method for synthesis of 1,3-diaryl-2-propen-1-one, rely on base catalyze condensation of arylmethyl ketone with aromatic aldehyde. This method however to an extent analogues to classical methodology thou minute changes in reactant charging sequence, prominent control over their dropping rate, and strict temperature regulation enhance its synthetic utility.

Keywords: Chalcone, Claisen-Schmidt condensation, synthetic tool, eco-handy technique
