Abstract

A simple and efficient heterogeneous procedure has been developed for the synthesis of chalcones (α,β??unsaturated ketones) by the Claisen–Schmidt condensation between arylaldehydes and ketones using Mg??Al??O t Bu hydrotalcite (HT??O t Bu) as catalyst. ... A simple and efficient heterogeneous
