Abstract
This paper introduces a unique and novel method for synthesizing thienyl chalcones using iron oxide nanoparticles (FeONPs) as a heterogeneous catalyst. It stands out as a rare example in the literature for the synthesis of these chalcones from 1,3-diketones and various aromatic aldehydes. The magnetic FeONPs employed as the catalyst bring several advantages, including their efficiency, affordability, and ecofriendly nature, making them an attractive choice for producing thiophene chalcones. One noteworthy aspect of this methodology is the utilization of mild reaction conditions, which greatly simplify the operational aspects of the reaction. Synthesized chalcones were confirmed through the application of various techniques, proton-NMR, 13C NMR, mass spectrometry, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. These analyses provide valuable insights into the chemical compositions and structural characteristics of the synthesized compounds. Significantly, this methodology is reported for the first time in the literature, indicating its novelty and contribution to the field of chalcone synthesis.
