Abstract

We report the solvent-free synthesis of (E)-1-{3-[2-(9-Ethyl-9H-carbazol-3-yl)vinyl]benzofuran-2-yl}-2,2-dimethylpropan-1-ones starting with 9-Ethyl-9H-carbazole-3-carbaldehyde under conventional and microwave irradiation methods. All products were characterised by IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis. The compounds were tested in vitro for their antimicrobial activity.
