synthesis and characterization of new (2e,2'e)-3,3'-(((3-hydroxypropane-1,2-diyl)bis(oxy))bis (2,1-phenylene))bis(1-phenylprop-2-en-1-one) and its transformation into 2,3-bis(2-(1,3-diphenyl-4,5-dihydro-1h-pyrazol-5-yl)phenoxy)propan-1-ol

in this paper, new (2e, 2'e)-3, 3'-(((3- hydroxypropane-1, 2-diyl) bis (oxy)) bis (2, 1-phenylene)) bis (1-phenylprop-2-en-1-one) (2a) was prepared in good yield by condensation reaction of acetophenone with bisaldehyde (1a) in ethanolic naoh solutions at room temperature. the (2e, 2'e)-3, 3'-(((3- hydroxypropane-1, 2-diyl) bis (oxy)) bis (2, 1-phenylene)) bis (1-phenylprop-2-en-1-one) (2a) was immediately reacted with phenyl hydrazine under refluxing conditions in the presence of potassium hydroxide to obtain the corresponding 2, 3-bis (2-(1, 3-diphenyl-4, 5-dihydro-1h-pyrazol-5-yl) phenoxy) propan-1-ol (3a). the newly synthesized compounds confirmed by melting point and tlc and their structure were established by various analytical techniques such as ir, 1h-nmr, 13c-nmr and elemental analysis.
