Abstract

1,4-bis(3-Aryl-3-oxo-1-propenyl)benzenes are important intermediates in organic synthesis,1-2 View all references which are usually obtained by the condensation of 1,4-benzenedicarboxaldehyde and substituted acetophenones in the presence of potassium hydroxide solution.3-4 View all references Also, we had previously reported that synthesis of 1,4-bis(3-aryl-3-oxo-1-propenyl )benzenes from 1,4-benzenedicarboxaldehyde and substituted acetophenones using ...
