RAPID AND EFFICIENT SYNTHESIS OF 2-[3-CYANO-4-(2-ARYLIDEN)-5, 5-DIMETHYL-5H-FURAN-2-YLIDENE]-MALONONITRILE UNDER FOCUSED MICROWAVE IRRADIATION

Abstract

New biological potential furan-2-ylidenemalononitriles (IIIa-j) were synthetised efficiently by one-pot condensation under focused microwave from starting and easy available compounds.
