Synthesis of some 2-Pyridones by Application of L-L Phase Transfer Catalysis Method

Abstract

Phase transfer catalysis P.T.C is one of the most widely used techniques in the preparation of a wide range of compounds not only in organic chemistry but also a broadly useful in several other areas of chemistry. There have been extensive studies that have been used to synthesize many compounds that are biologically important with highly efficient and the percentage of the product and purity are high with perfect time. In this study, a number of chalcones were prepared and reacted with phenoxy acetamide, 4-methyl phenoxy acetamide and phenyl mercapto acetamide for the preparation of 2–pyridones compounds under phase transfer catalysis conditions. The reaction mechanism and the structure of the resulting compounds were determined using physical analysis methods IR and 1H-NMR. 13C-NMR was also measured for some compounds.
