Abstract

Vanillin is one of the compounds that was successfully isolated from the fruits of the Vanilla planifolia Andrews which are abundant in Indonesia. So far, Indonesia has only been able to export vanilla fruit directly without further processing. The IUPAC name of Vanillin is 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde. This compound is a derivative of benzaldehyde. The presence of an aldehyde group causes vanillin to experience a Knoevenagel condensation reaction if it is reacted with dimedone. In this paper, two derivatives of vanillin compounds successfully synthesized. The first compound has a pyran skeleton and the second compound has a pyridine skeleton. Both of these compounds have the potential as antibacterial agents against gram positive and negative bacteria.

Keywords: vanillin derivatives, Knoevenagel condensation, antibacterial agents
