An efficient synthesis of polyhydroquinoline derivatives was reported via four-component coupling reactions of aldehydes, 1,3-dicarbonyl ketones (dimedone or 1,3-cyclohexanedione), ethyl acetoacetate or methyl acetoacetate and ammonium acetate in the presence of a catalytic amount of nanocrystalline TiO2 under solvent free conditions. The reported method is mild, rapid and has the advantages such as heterogeneous catalysis, […]
Novel deep eutectic solvent (DES) using Choline Chloride (ChCl) as the hydrogen bond acceptor and triflouroacetic acid (TFA) as hydrogen bond donor (1.0:1.5 molar ratio) was prepared at room temperature and characterized by FT- IR and 1H NMR spectroscopy. Also, this novel acidic RTDES (room temperature deep eutectic solvent) was successfully used both as a […]
