Abstract

The article describes an efficient and environmentally friendly Michael addition of 2-[(2-oxo-2-phenylethyl)sulfanyl]-1-phenyl-1-ethanones (diphenacyl sulfides) to substituted chalcones using microwave irradiation under solvent-free conditions, affording differently substituted 1,3,5-triarylpentan-1,5-diones in moderate to good yields of 74–83%.
