Synthesis

edit

4'-Nitroflavonol can be synthesized by the Algar–Flynn–Oyamada reaction of the chalcone formed from 4-nitrobenzaldehyde and 2-hydroxyacetophenone.[1]

Properties

edit

Fluorescence is reported[1] despite the presence of a nitro group at the 4' position of the molecule, which[clarification needed] is known as a fluorescence quencher.[2] An excited state intramolecular proton transfer reaction for 4'-nitroflavonol has also been observed.[1]
