UoZ‑8–Catalyzed Synthesis of an Azo‑Chalcone With Microwave Acceleration: Structure Confirmation, DFT Descriptors, and PASS‑Predicted Bioactivity

A Zn‐based metal–organic framework, UoZ‐8, was applied as a heterogeneous catalyst for the synthesis of an azo‐chalcone through Claisen–Schmidt condensation under conventional thermal and microwave‐assisted conditions. Microwave irradiation provided a cleaner and more efficient route than the conventional method, red...
