Abstract
Green chemistry focuses on synthesis of chemical compounds to get maximum yield with minimal waste, atom economy, usage of less toxic chemicals, less wastage, high efficiency, Green catalysts. The basic aim of our study is to compare the synthesis of amino flavanones by conventional and microwave Assisted method. Microwave assisted synthesis is a green tool for organic synthesis providing clean, economic, enhanced reaction rate and percentage yields. In the present study, Paracetamol was taken as the starting material which after a series of steps gave 6-amino flavanones. The microwave method was found to be highy efficient where the reaction time reduces from hours to minutes when compared to the conventional organic synthesis. The rate of reaction of microwave assisted reaction increases by 10-1000 times and the yield is found to be increased by 10-40 percent than the conventional method. All the compounds synthesized were characterized by melting point, TLC, IR, (1) H NMR spectroscopy. Study was done by comparing reaction time and percentage yield in both methods. It is observed that the microwave assisted method is greener, cheaper, more convenient method than conventional method.
