Abstract:
A series of new substituted cyclohexenone derivatives have been
synthesized by the reaction of various substituted chalcones with
ethylacetoacetate. Some new N-(4-(3-aryl-acryloyl)phenyl)cyclopropane
carboxamide were prepared by Claisen-Schmidt condensation
method in presence of sodium hydroxide in ethanol solvent under
stirring. The synthesized compounds were characterized by their
spectral (IR, NMR, Mass) data and screened for their antimicrobial
activities against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria by using
standard antimicrobial drugs.
