ABSTRACT

The efficient synthesis of sixteen 5-arylidene-2,4-thiazolidinediones by aldol condensation reaction of 2,4-thiazolidinedione, mono- and di-substituted arenealdehydes and KOH using ultrasound irradiation is reported. The desired compounds were obtained in a few min (10-30 min) with moderate to good yields (25-81%).
