The preparation process has been started by diazotizing 4-(6-methylbenzothiazol-2-yl) benzamine and its coupling reaction with 4-hydroxy acetophenone producing azo-acetophenone, followed by benzylation with benzyl chloride to form the starting material, azo-benzyloxy acetophenone. A series of substituted benzaldehydes were reacted with the latter compound via one pot and classical methods, forming new chalcones containing azo linkages and benzyloxy moieties, which were then converted into new target azo-pyrazoline derivatives.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by spectroscopic techniques using FT-IR, <sup>1</sup>H-NMR, <sup>13</sup>C-NMR, and <sup>13</sup>C- DEPT- 135 spectra.
