The synthesis of dicinnamalacetone via a double aldol condensation of cinnamaldehyde with acetone. I plan to use this compound in an upcoming video if the next couple of steps in the total synthesis work out well.https://www.patreon.com/corrosion Music: "Olivier" by Wintergatan Build Tracks This track can be downloaded for free at www.wintergatan.net Free License to use this track in your video can be downloaded at www.wintergatan.net Music: "Provence (without Intro)" by Wintergatan Build Tracks This track can be downloaded for free at www.wintergatan.net Free License to use this track in your video can be downloaded at www.wintergatan.net
Really nice synthesis, thanks for sharing the procedure. Looking forward to more great chemistry videos!
Beautifully presented. Thank you.
Nice synthesis bro, it looks similar to the product of the condensation of malononitrile with vanillin ( sorry for My Bad English)
Someone have a cientific reference about the natural source or presence of dicinnamalacetone? Thank you all.
which vacuum pump are you using ?
Epic
gud done. nice orang
Bam im HERE for the new Video
First
xd

Cool vid! A tip: to boost yield, it could be a good idea to add water dropwise into boiling ethanol during recrystallization until light precipitation occurs, then cooling the whole thing in freezer. Nearly all impurities will remain in ethanol-water solution.

Good tip!
