In the present study we have prepared a series of some chalcones using solvent - free Aldol - condensation by microwave irradiation. The yields of the ketones are more than 60%. The synthesised chalcones were characterized by their analytical, physical and spectral data. The antimicrobial activities of substituted styryl 3-thienyl ketones have been studied using Bauer-Kirby method.
