Application of microwave irradiation techniques for the Knoevenagel condensation

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397919608003646

The reaction rate of Knoevenagel condensation can be dramatically enhanced by irradiating the reaction mixture containing an aldehyde, diethyl malonate, P₂O₅, piperidine, and chlorobenzene with a commercial microwave oven. Six Knoevenagel condensation products were synthesized within 5-15 min in good yields.
