Abstract

Chalcone derivatives containing thiophene ring were prepared by the condensation of 3-acetylthiophene with aromatic aldehydes in excellent yields. The addition of ethyl acetoacetate to chalcone derivatives 3a–3h in the presence of solid NaOH in CH2Cl2 resulted in the formation of the mixture of bicyclic lactone derivatives 5a–5h and 6-(ethoxycarbonyl)cyclohexenone derivatives 6a–6h.
