Abstract: | The condensation of mono o- or p-substituted anilines (1) with tetrachloro-1,4-benzoquinone (2) has been achieved by using K2CO3 under conventional heating, solid solvent-free grinding, solid-phase microwave irradiation (MWI) conditions to obtain substituted
dichloro-p-benzoquinone derivatives (3). All the nontraditional methods described herein provide several advantages over prior methods such as higher yield, convenient
work-up procedure, and enviro-economic synthesis. It is observed that solid-supported reaction under MWI is the most appropriate
for the synthesis of the title compounds. All the synthesized compounds were tested for their in vitro antibacterial and antifungal
activity. Some compounds showed promising antimicrobial properties. The best activity was observed with compounds 3b and 3f.
