• Benzil
• Microwave irradiation
• Cross-aldol reaction
• Hydroxycyclopentenones

Under microwave irradiation, the corresponding hydroxycyclopentenones were prepared in high yields by the cross-aldol reactions of benzil with various ketones. When the reactions were performed in various solvents under classical heating for a long time, they produced the products in relatively low yields.
