Application of Microwave irradiation Techniques for the Knoevenagel Condensation

Jae-Kon Kim, Pan‐Suk Kwon, TaeWoo Kwon, Sung‐Kee Chung, Jaewook Lee

Abstract

The reaction rate of Knoevenagel condensation can be dramatically enhanced by irradiating the reaction mixture containing an aldehyde, diethyl malonate, P2O5, piperidine, and chlorobenzene with a commercial microwave oven. Six Knoevenagel condensation products were synthesized within 5–15 min in good yields.
