The retroaldol reaction of chalcone

Abstract: All four rate constants required to describe the hydration and aldolization/dealdolization reactions.of chalcone ( 1,3-diphenyl-2-propen-I-one) have been determined in aqueous sodium hydroxide solutions. Kinetics were studied starting with chalcone, with its hydrate, 1.3-diphenyl-3-hydroxy-I-propanone, and with benzaldehyde in the presence of excess acetophenone. The rate constants for hydroxide catalyzed reactions, defined in terms of eq.

“…This reaction turned out to be somewhat more difficult to sort out, but we have now completed the kinetic analysis, and wish to report it in turn. This provides another example of a fully analyzed aldol condensation, to add to those we (1,(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10) and others (1 1-14) have previously reported. To complete the analysis we had to develop computer programs allowing us to fit simultaneously multiple sets of data described by equations with common parameters.…”

“…In designing carbonitrile-chalcone 4, we here make use of the Knoevenagel and retro-Knovenagel reactions (62) yielding the desired compound due to a reversible aldolization reaction (63) that has never been exploited in the antedrug field before. The biologically active compound, carbonitrile-chalcone 4, is readily hydrolyzed in aqueous media with a half-life of a few tens of min and yields vanillin and pCBA, which both serve as synthetic building blocks for the preparation of carbonitrile-chalcone 4.…”

“…Although previously studied cases include both conjugated (5-9) and non-conjugated enones (2)(3)(4), there has been no detailed study of a cross-conjugated system where a ketone such as acetophenone acts as carbon nucleophile towards an unconjugated aldehyde or ketone in the aldol reaction. Chalcone has been studied (5,9) but in this case there is through-conjugation by the phenyl derived from benzaldehyde as well as cross-conjugation for the phenyl derived from acetophenone. The present case allows us to assess the effects of cross-conjugation uncomplicated by competing through-conjugation.…”
