Microwave assisted synthesis of substituted furan-2-carboxaldehydes and their reactions

Abstract EN

A series of 5-unsubstituted and 5-substituted furfurylidenes have been prepared, under thermal and non-thermal microwave irradiation methods, via condensation of furfural and its derivatives with some of active methylene compounds.

Furthermore, various condensate products from-these furfurylidenes, which contain halogen or sulpher atoms, were also prepared.

Structural elucidation of the synthesized compounds were determined on the basis of various spectroscopic methods.
