DEVELOPMENT OF A METHOD FOR THE ALDOL CONDENSATION BY ACID CATALYSIS AND RESULTS WERE CONFIRMATION OF RESULTS BY TLC TECHNIQUE

Abstract :

Aldol condensation is generally carried out in the presence of base to give b–hydroxy derivatives. But we did a green synthesis in aldol condensation for two different reactants by using an acid i.e. citric acid to give a,b– unsaturated ketone. Formations of product(s) for different two reactants were confirmed by Thin Layer Chromatography. Crude product is recrystallized from ethyl acetate. The product formed has wide range applications.
