Abstract

A facile ethylenediamine diacetate (EDDA)-catalyzed one-pot synthesis of biologically interesting flavanone derivatives from 2-hydroxyacetophenones, aromatic aldehydes, and aniline via a Mannich-type reaction is described. This synthetic method provides a rapid access to biologically interesting flavanone derivatives. To demonstrate this method, several biologically interesting natural products bearing a flavanone moiety were synthesized as racemates­.
