Knoevenagel reaction is one of the classical ways of C=C bond formation where a carbon nucleophile is added to a carbonyl function followed by a dehydration. This name reaction has a great reputation in synthetic organic chemistry by virtue of its application in the synthesis of molecules of varied interest. Here in, the importance and supplication of Knoevenagel reaction are reviewed.
