Rice husk ash (RHA): A Highly efficient solid acid catalyst for the oxidation of alcohols and trimethylsilyl, tetrahydropyranyl and methoxymethyl ethers with CrO3

A mild, efficient and fast method for the oxidation of alcohols and trimethylsilyl, tetrahydropyranyl and methoxymethyl ethers to their corresponding carbonyl compounds using CrO3 in the presence of rice husk ash (RHA) is reported. All reactions were performed at room temperature in high to excellent yields. A new, efficient and green catalyst, heterogeneous reaction conditions, […]

Introduction of sulfonated rice husk ash as a highly efficient reusable catalyst for the protection of the hydroxyl group

A mild, efficient and fast method for the trimethylsilyl (TMS), tetrahydropyranyl (THP) and methoxymethyl (MOM) protection of alcohols and phenols in the presence of sulfonated rice husk ash (RHA-SO3H) is reported. All reactions were performed at room temperature in high to excellent yields. All the products are separated and compared with authentic samples and/ or […]

Acetylation of alcohol, phenols, thiols and amine promoted by succinimidinium hydrogensulfate ([H-Suc]HSO4) in the absence of solvent

Succinimidinium hydrogensulfate ([H-Suc]HSO4), as a new and stable derivative of succinimide, is easily prepared by the reaction of succinimide with neat sulfuric acid. This ionic liquid can be used as an efficient catalyst for the acetylation of alcohols, phenols, thiols and amines at room temperature under mild and solvent free conditions. All the products are […]

Introduction of Brönsted acidic ionic liquid supported on nanoporous Na+-montmorillonite as an efficient catalyst for the synthesis of 2-amino-tetrahydro-4H-pyrans

Nanoporous sodium montmorillonite clay (Na+-MMT) was used as a support for the immobilization of 1-methyl-3-(trimethoxysilylpropyl)-imidazolium hydrogen sulfate (Na+-MMT-[pmim]HSO4). This catalyst showed excellent catalytic activity for the preparation of 2-amino-3-cyano-5-oxo-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-4H-benzopyrans via three-component reactions between aldehydes, dimedone and malononitrile. The procedure gave the products in high yields within short reaction times. Also, this catalyst can be reused […]
