Abstract

Microwave Induced Synthesis of Anthraquinone Compounds : A Solvent Free Path for Some Dyes

Author(s): Khushboo Jaina and Sadhna Singh

Synthesis of anthraquinone derivatives was carried under microwave irradiations. The reaction was found to follow condensation mechanism with removal of water molecule. Formation of product was confirmed through TLC, melting point and spectral analysis. The reaction was carried out in a single pot without using solvent in a domestic microwave oven.
