then recrystallized from appropriate solvent to afford tar-
get compounds Xa,b. The target compound Xc was
obtained by reacting a solution of (0.25 g) IXa in chloro-
form (5 mL) with (3 mL) phenyl isothiocyanate in equimo-
lar quantity and then refluxed for 2 h with stirring.
Dropwise addition of (1–3 mL) of triethylamine was
applied along the reflux. The product Xc was then
washed with acetone, filtered, and crystallized from
toluene.

3,5-bis(Substituted benzylidene)-N-acylpiperidin-4-
one (XIIa-d) General procedure
The target compounds XIIa–d were prepared by acylation
reaction of 0.01 mole of acetyl chloride (1 mL)/0.01 mole
of benzoyl chloride (2 mL) dissolved in chloroform (6 mL)
mixed with (0.02 moles, 2 mL) triethylamine and added
dropwise to 0.006 mole of the previously prepared XIa–d
at 5 °C then stirred for 2 h at room temperature. Recrystal-
lization from the appropriate solvent was then carried out.
