Trifluoromethanesulfonic Acid-Catalyzed Tandem Semi-Pinacol Rearrangement/Alkyne-Aldehyde Metathesis Reaction of Arylpropagylsulfonamide-Tethered 2,3-Epoxycyclohexan-1-ols to Spiropiperidines

Synthesis of 1,8-dioxo-octahydroxanthenes under solvent-free conditions via Phosphorus pentoxide supported on alumina (P2O5/Al2O3) catalyzed tandem reaction of Aldehyde with dimedone

Phosphorus pentoxide used on alumina (P2O5/Al2O3) as an inexpensive, eco-friendly and non-toxic acid catalyst for the one-pot synthesis of 1,8-dioxo-octahydroxanthenes via multi-component reactions under solvent-free conditions. The present approach offers several advantages such as short reaction times, high yields, easy purification, recovery and reusability of the catalyst.

Tandem Prins/pinacol reaction for the synthesis of oxaspiro[4.5]decan-1-one scaffolds.

A novel Lewis acid catalyzed Prins/pinacol cascade process has been developed for the synthesis of 7-substituted-8-oxaspiro[4.5]decan-1-ones in good yields with excellent selectivity. This is the first example of the synthesis of oxaspirocycles from aldehydes and 1-(4-hydroxybut-1-en-2-yl)cyclobutanol through a cascade of Prins/pinacol rearrangement. This method is applicable to a wide range of...

Synthesis of 1,8-dioxo-octahydroxanthenes under solvent-free conditions via Phosphorus pentoxide supported on alumina (P2O5/Al2O3) catalyzed tandem reaction of Aldehyde with dimedone

Efficient synthesis of functionalized dihydroquinolines, quinolines and dihydrobenzo[b]azepine via an iron(III) chloride-catalyzed intramolecular alkyne-carbonyl metathesis of alkyne tethered 2-amino benzaldehyde/acetophenone derivatives.

In this study we have developed an efficient synthesis of 1,2-dihydroquinoline and dihydrobenzo[b]azepine derivatives involving the iron(III) chloride intramolecular alkyne-carbonyl metathesis reaction for the first time. Various functionalized 1,2-dihydroquinolines and dihydrobenzo[b]azepines were prepared from easily accessible substrates in the presence of environmentally friendly and inexpe...

Convenient One-pot Access to Pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidine Derivatives via a CuCl2.2H2O Catalyzed Knoevenagel-Michael Addition Reaction in Water/Ethanol Media

Convenient procedure for the synthesis of corresponding pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives were developed via one-pot three-component reaction of aryl aldehyde derivatives, malononitrile with barbituric acids in the presence of copper (II) chloride dihydrate (CuCl2.2H2O) as highly efficient Lewis acid catalyst. This protocol has advantages such as readily and inexpensive catalyst, high reactio...
