Synthesis, spectral study and properties of Pyridine chalcone

Abstract Pyridine chalcone is open chain containing unsaturated carbonyl group consisting of two aromatic rings. Pyridine chalcone is synthesized by Claisen-Schmidt condensation method in alkaline solution. Spectroscopic characterization using Electronic absorption, Infra red, 1H NMR spectra and chemical tests has are studied for Pyridine chalcone. Physico-chemical properties, 1H NMR, IR, Electronic absorption spectra and CHO analysis study of this compound shows that it is novel Pyridine chalcone.
