Abstract

A novel series of potential biologically active new cinnamoyl amides were synthesized in good yield and short reaction times. We have studied the one-pot, solvent-free reaction of cinnamic acid derivatives with aromatic amines using 1,3-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide under microwave irradiation in the presence of small quantities of dimethylformamide to improve energy transfer. ... A novel series of potential biologically active new cinnamoyl amides were ...
