Catalytic activity of AlHMS was investigated as a cheap heterogeneous reusable catalyst in some multi-component reactions for the synthesis of various chromenes. Three-component reaction of 2-hydroxy-naphtoquinone with an aromatic aldehyde and dimedone or barbituric acid in H2O under reflux conditions was performed using AlHMS in relatively good yields. The approach was more extended using psuedo […]
Phthalimide was reacted with chlorosulfonic acid to give sulfonic acid-functionalized phthalimide (SFP), which characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FT-IR, XRD (X-ray diffraction), SEM (scanning electron microscopy), EDX (energy-dispersive X-ray), mass, TG (thermogravimetry) and DTG (derivative thermal gravimetry) spectra. Afterward, its catalytic activity was examined for the condensation of arylaldehydes with 2-naphthol under solvent-free conditions […]
A series of arylidine barbituric acid derivatives was synthesized by Knoevenagel condensation reaction of aromatic aldehydes with barbituric acid or thiobarbituric acid using dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid as a Brønsted acid-surfactant catalyst in aqueous media. Regardless of the nature of the substitution (electron-donating and -withdrawing), all the reactions were completed within 15-65 min in water at reflux […]
Oxalic acid dihydrate as a green, mild and efficient catalyst for the one-pot three-component Biginelli synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-(1H)-one derivatives from the reaction between β-keto esters (methyl or ethyl acetoacetate), aromatic aldehyde (benzaldehye derivatives) and urea or thiourea under thermal and solvent-free conditions with excellent yields and short reaction time is studied. The most remarkable benefits […]
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 […]
A new organocatalyzed method is developed for Baylis–Hillman reactions of cyclohex-2-enone with various aromatic aldehydes in the presence of water and catalytic quantities of triethylamine. All reactions take place at room temperature and relatively good yields of various products are obtained within a time frame which does not exceed 24 hours. The mild reaction conditions […]
Thiamine hydrochloride (Vitamin-B1) has been utilized as an effective biodegradable catalyst for the one pot synthesis of polyhydroquinoline derivatives via four component reaction of dimedone, aldehyde, ethylacetoacetate and ammonium acetate in ethanol under mild conditions.
