Synthesis and Bioevaluation Study of Benzofuran Linked Tetralones as Antimitotic Agent
Abstract:A series of new benzofuran linked tetralones (5a-h) have been prepared by chalcone route of Claisen-Schmidt condensation reaction in the presence of sodium hydroxide, 1-(benzofuran-6-yl)ethanone (1) reacts with substituted benzaldehyde (2a-h) followed by cyclopropanation of 1-(benzofuran-6-yl)-3-phenylprop-2-en-1-one (3a-h) with trimethylsulfoxonium iodide (TMSOI) in the presence of sodium hydride and Friedel-Craft's intramolecular cyclization reaction of benzofuran-6-yl(2-phenylcyclopropyl)methanone (4a-h) in… Show more
