1,4-Dihydropyridines (1,4-DHPs) are recognized as one of the most versatile pharmacophores present as central core in many pharmaceuticals. Low yield and harsh reaction conditions prompted the researchers for the development of new environmental- friendly methods for the synthesis of 1,4-DHPs. This review explored the development of various green chemistry approaches using new catalysts developed for […]
An environmentally benign procedure for the synthesis of vicinal nitrohydrins via the regioselective ring opening reaction of epoxides with nitrite anion using silica-bound 3-{2-[poly(ethylene glycol)]ethyl}-substituted 1-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium bromide as an effective heterogeneous phase transfer catalyst was described. Short reaction time, high yield of products, simple work-up procedure, and recyclability of the catalyst were some of the […]
A hydrophobic-bentonite catalyst (cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide-bentonite) has been used as a very mild, neutral, eco-friendly, reusable, non-toxic, low-cost and easily available catalyst. It was prepared by replacing the exchangeable Na+ cations of a homoionic Na–bentonite with cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTMAB) cations. The catalyst was characterized by XRD, BET and SEM. The BET data and XRD […]
In this research, various polycyclic fused acridines were synthesized via the highly efficient and green one-step four-component reaction between isatins, dimedone, various amines, and dimethylacetylenedicarboxylates (DMAD/DEAD) in the presence of n-octyl-3-methylpipyridinium bromide ([OMePPy]+Br–) as a newly prepared ionic liquid, in absolute green situations at room temperature under solvent-free conditions. The ionic liquid characterized by 1H […]
In this research, we report a novel and green magnetic nanocatalyst; Fe3O4@SiO2@Vitamin C@Fe2O3 for clean synthesis of 3-amino-1-aryl-1H-benzo[f]chromene-2-carbonitriles with high-yield in water as solvent at room temperature. The nanocatalyst is stable under the synthetic conditions and it can be reused several times without considerable reduction in its catalytic activity. The catalyst structure was characterized by […]
A highly efficient, eco-friendly procedure has been proposed for the synthesis of 2-amino-3-phenylsulfonyl-4H-pyran derivatives via nano-cellulose-OSnCl4-x catalyst prepared from cotton as support treated with tin tetrachloride (SnCl4). This catalyst is characterized by FT-IR, FESEM, TEM, TGA, and EDX. The TEM results confirmed the size of the nano-cellulose-OSnCl4-x catalyst was below 30 nm. The efficiency of […]
