title: Synthesis and insect antifeedant activities of some substituted styryl 3,4-dichlorophenyl ketones.
abstract: Sixteen substituted styryl 3,4-dichlorophenyl ketones [(2E)-1-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-3-phenyl-2-propen-1-ones] were synthesized using eco-friendly benign stereoselective crossed-aldol reaction. They are characterized by their analytical, infrared, NMR and mass spectral data. The insect antifeedant activities of these chalcones were evaluated using Caster semilooper and Achoea janata L.
