Abstract:
Chalcones are the important constituent of many natural sources and have variety of biological activities. A series of chalcone derivatives were synthesized and their structure also confirmed. The compounds were synthesized by Claisen-Shimidt base catalyzed condensation of appropriate aromatic ketones or substituted aromatic ketones with benzaldehydes or substituted benzaldehydes. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by IR, mass spectroscopy and elemental analysis.
