Abstract
In this study, a new synthetic method was developed for new 3-oxobutanohydrazide derivatives. This synthetic method consists of two steps. In the first step, aldehyde phenyl hydrazone derivatives were synthesized. Then, these compounds were reacted with 2,2,6-trimethyl-4H-1,3-dioxin-4-one (TMD) compound in the presence of the catalytic amount of cerium ammonium nitrate and 3-oxobutanohydrazide derivatives, which are new target molecules, were synthesized. The structures of the synthesized 3-oxobutanohyidrazide derivatives were characterized by 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR.
