Title Microwave-assisted aldol condensation of benzil with ketones
Type JournalPaper
Keywords Benzil; Microwave irradiation; Cross-aldol reaction; Hydroxycyclopentenones
Abstract Under microwave irradiation, the corresponding hydroxycyclopentenones were prepared in high yields by the cross-aldol reactions of benzil with various ketones. When the reactions were performed in various solvents under classical heating for a long time, they produced the products in relatively low yields.
