General description

4-Benzyloxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde reacts with benzohydrazide to yield (E)-N′-(4-benzyloxy-3-methoxybenzylidene)benzohydrazide.

Application

4-Benzyloxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde was used in the synthesis of 1,2-bis(4-benzyloxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-3-hydroxy-propionic acid. It was also used in first enantioselective total synthesis of a neurotrophic (-)-talaumidin.

A series of 18 aminochalcone derivatives were obtained in yields of 21.5-88.6% by applying the classical Claisen-Schmidt reaction. Compounds 4-9, 14 and 16-18 with 4-ethyl, 4-carboxy-, 4-benzyloxy- and 4-benzyloxy-3-methoxy groups were novel, not previously described in the scientific literature. To
