Substituted benzofuran moiety i.e. Pongamol the target nucleus is reported to having various biological activity like anti-convulsant, sedative (prologation of sleeping time), anti oxidant and dislipidemic etc. due to structural correlation to CNS acting drugs. All the available data of Pongamol were based from natural or semisynthetic source. This encourages going for a synthesis of Pongamol with industrial friendly process. Pongamol is prepared synthetically using easily available source and quick, cost effective and high yielding process.
