Green Synthesis of Pharmacologically Active Piperazine Substituted Schiff Bases and their Antimicrobial Activities
Author(s): Krishnakant T Waghmode* and Bandoba T. Nikam
Green synthesis of piperazine substituted Schiff bases is described. Microwave-assisted synthesis not only reduced the reaction time drastically but also gave excellent yields. 2-naphthylpiperazine was converted to its ester followed by hydrazide. Hydrazide of 2-naphthyl piperazine was reacted with various substituted aromatic aldehydes under conventional heating and microwave irradiation method to get the final product. The synthesized compounds are characterized by FT-IR, 1H-NMR, and Mass spectral data... Read More»
