Description |
Microwave-assisted condensation of benzaldehyde (3a,b) with acetone in aqueous sodium hydroxide adsorbed
on basic alumina provides phenylbutenone (4a–4b) in 68–71% yield within 4 min, which upon further
reduction with sodium borohydride and basic alumina gives phenylbutenol (5a,b) in 91–94% yield within 2
min. Dehydration of 5 with anhydrous copper (II) sulfate gives phenylbutadiene (1a,b), a metabolite of
Zingiber cassumunar, within 3 min in 42–48% yield, respectively. All the steps involve environmental friendly
solvents and reagents, mild reaction conditions, and overall formation of product 1a,b from 3a,b in 34–38%
yield within 9 min under microwave irradiation.
