Abstract:
Chalcone (E)-3-(3-chlorophenyl)-1-(naphthalen-1-yl)prop-2-en-1-one was synthesized by aldol condensation reaction from 1-acetylnaphthalen with 3-chlorobenzaldehyde
using NaOH catalyst by stirring method. (E)-3-(3-chlorophenyl)-1-(naphthalen-1- yl)prop-2-en-1-one compound obtained in yield 87,81 %. The structures of synthesized
compounds were well characterized by UV, IR, NMR, and Mass spectroscopy showed
that the compound obtained was correlated to our target compound
