Solvent-free, Environmentally Benign Syntheses of Some Imines and Antioxidant Activity

Abstract

Environmentally benign, economically feasible, and solvent-free syntheses of series of imines by the condensation of a substituted hydroxynaphthyl ketone with several substituted iodoanilines under grinding approach are described. Imines were further tested for antioxidant activity; most of them show moderate activity. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.17807/orbital.v7i3.608
