SINTESIS (E)-3-(3-BROMOFENIL)-1-(NAFTALEN-2-IL)PROP-2-EN-2-ON DARI 2-ASETILNAFTALEN DAN 3-BROMOBENZALDEHID

Abstract

Chalcone of (E)-3-(3-bromophenil)-1-(naphtalen-2-yl)prop-2-en-2-one has been synthesized from 2- acethylnapthalene and 3- bromobenzaldehyd by aldol condensation using the stirring method with base catalyst (NaOH). The yield obtained for this compound was 61.21 %. The purity of product has been evaluated using TLC, melting point test, and HPLC analysis. The structure of the synthesized compound was confirmed by UV UV, FTIR, NMR, and MS analysis. Data characterization showed that the compound obtained was the targeted compound
