Aqueous fraction of Sapindus rarak D.C. fruit extract mediated one-pot three component construction of 9,9-dimethyl-12-phenyl-9,10-dihydro-8H-benzo[a]xanthen-11(12H)-one

Abstract

In this study, we report 3-component combination of 2-naphthol, dimedone and benzaldehyde in 9,9-dimethyl-12-phenyl-9,10-dihydro-8H-benzo[a]xanthen-11(12)-one synthesis using water fraction of Sapindus rarak D.C. fruit extract. This extract promoted an efficient synthesis under mild reaction conditions. The compound structure was confirmed by FT-IR and Mass analysis.
