Thesis AbstractBackground: Heterocyclic are known to have multiple applications in particular biomedical settings. Aim: The present study reports a convenient protocol for the design and synthesis of new heterocyclic compounds incorporating 1- hydroxy-naphthyl angular chromones bearing allylnaphthyl fragments. Materials Methods: versatile precursor 2-acetyl-4- allyl-1-hydroxy naphthalene was su...

Vilsmeier reagent formed from phthaloyl dichloride and DMF was found to be very effective for converting 2-hydroxyacetophenones, deoxybenzoins and dihydrochalcones into corresponding chromones, isoflavones and homoisoflavones with excellent yield. This method offers significant advantages such as efficiency and mild reaction conditions with shorter reaction time.
