Abstract
An improved method for synthesis of 2,4-diacetyl-cyclohexanone derivatives is reported with enhanced yield in presence of DMSO as solvent. In situ, reaction of aromatic and hetero aromatic aldehydes with β-oxo-ketones undergoing Knoevenagel condensation, Michael addition followed by aldol condensation to give the desired product in excellent yield. displayed prominent mild to moderate antimicrobial and antifungal activities. The 2,4-diacetyl-cyclohexanone derivatives thus obtained have been characterized by 1H NMR, 13CNMR, FT-IR, MASS, HRMS and X-ray single Crystallography spectroscopic methods.
