Chemical Synthesis and Analysis

l-Proline is utilized as an efficient organocatalyst for the synthesis of substituted flavanones and chalcones in good yields. The efficiency of the catalyst was proved with a variety of substrates ranging from electron-deficient to electron-rich aryl aldehydes and 2-hydroxyacetophenones.
