Abstract:

An efficient tandem synthesis of alkyl aryl ethers, including valuable building blocks of dialdehyde and dinitro groups under microwave irradiation and solvent free conditions on potassium carbonate as a mild solid base has been developed. A series of alkyl aryl ethers were obtained from alcohols in excellent yields by following the Williamson ether synthesis protocol under practical mild conditions. Scale up ability of this practical procedure is shown by the preparation of some of the valuable dialdehydes up to 50 mmole from alcohols. The method is simple, rapid, straight-forward and holds potential for further application in organic synthesis and industrial requirements.

Synthesis, fluorescence and photoisomerization studies of azobenzene-functionalized poly(alkyl aryl ether) dendrimers.

A series of azobenzene-functionalized poly(alkyl aryl ether) dendrimers have been synthesized and their photochemical and photophysical properties in solution and as thin films have been investigated. Although the photochemical behavior of the azodendrimers in solution indicated that the azobenzene units behave independently, very similar to the constituent monomer azobenzene unit, the properti...

A mild, convenient synthesis of sulfinic acid salts and sulfonamides from alkyl and aryl halides

A general, mild, and convenient method has been developed for the synthesis of various alkyl and aryl sulfinic acid salts and sulfonamides from the corresponding halides. Key to the success of this methodology is the design and facile synthesis of sodium 3-methoxy-3-oxopropane-1-sulfinate (SMOPS), a reagent that serves to introduce the protected sulfinate moiety directly to the substrate, thus ...

A green synthesis of di-indolyloxindols catalyzed by CuO/g-C3N4 nanocomposite under mild conditions

In this study, novel CuO/g-C3N4 nanocomposite was simply synthesized by impregnation of g-C3N4 with CuO nanoparticles. Then, the heterogeneous catalyst was characterized by various techniques including Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and transmission electron microscopy (...
