  ABSTRACT: Homoisoflavonoids are in the subclass of the larger family of flavonoids having one more alkyl carbon than flavonoids. Among them, 8-C-Methylated homoisoflavones have not been extensively studied for synthesis and biological evaluation. Author’s current objective is to synthesize 8-C-Methylated homoisoflavones by the reaction of 3-C-methylated dihydrochalcones with N,N’-dimethyl (chloromethylene) ammonium chloride generated in situ from DMF and PCl5 for one carbon extension at about room temperature. The 3-C-methylated dihydrochalcones were synthesized by the reduction of 3-C-methylated chalcones, which were prepared from 3-C-methylated acetophenones and aromatic aldehydes in the presence of base. All the synthesized novel homoisoflavones’s structures were characterized by NMR and Tandem Mass Spectrometry.
