An efficient and rapid synthesis of some novel 1,3-diaryl, diazenyl, 2-propen-1-one using PEG-400 as recyclable solvent and their in vitro antimicrobial evaluation

In the present communication, a series of some novel hetero 1,3-diaryl, diazenyl 2-propen-1-one (azochalcone) by using PEG as a green reaction medium. The reaction gives shorter reaction time, excellent yield and inexpensive. All the synthesized products were characterized by the spectroscopic and analytical measurement. Furthermore, all the synthesized compounds were screened for their in vitro antimicrobial activity.
