A microwave-assisted solid-phase synthesis of 2-(benzylthio)imidazo[1,2a]pyrimidin-5-ones has been developed. Using microwave irradiation, the reaction time was significantly reduced from a few days to 80 min. A representative set of 10 2-(benzylthio)-6,7-substituted-imidazo[1,2a]pyrimidin-5-ones was prepared. These compounds were subsequently N-alkylated and formylated in good yields.

Glycerol mono-oleate (GMO) was produced by direct esterification reaction with amberlyst 16 resin catalysts with the efficiency of 86% and was used as a surfactant for synthesis of CoFe2O4 nano-particles by surfactant-assisted microwave method. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-Ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to consider the structural and...

Rapid and efficient methods for the synthesis of an important intermediate of benazepril ethyl 3-phthalimido-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-[1]benzazepin-2-one-1-acetate under the influence of microwave irradiation are described. A comparative study of conventional and microwave assisted method is briefly discussed.

Photocatalytic oxidation makes use of light of appropriate frequency to activate a catalyst. In the presence of water on the surface of the catalyst, rates of some photocatalytic reactions are slowed. Microwaves are known for an ability to couple with water. Herein a photocatalytic reactor system was integrated with a waveguide allowing for concurrent application of microwaves and photocatalysi...

Nowadays microwave radiation is being researched to produce biodiesel from different raw materials due to the many advantages that this technology presents compared to traditional transesterification, such as shorter reaction times and less amount of heat energy to obtain biodiesel. The aim of this research was to explore the possibility of carrying out the microwave-assisted transesterificatio...

A fast one-pot method has been developed for the direct preparation of 3-aryl-1,2-cyclohexanediones from 2,3-epoxycyclohexanone via a microwave-assisted tandem epoxy ketone isomerization-Heck arylation reaction. The preparative microwave-assisted reactions were performed preferentially in 50% aqueous poly(ethylene glycol) utilizing sodium acetate as the base. Within 5-30 min of directed microwa...

Spices and herbs are known not only for their taste, aroma and flavour, but also for their medical properties and value. Both spices and herbs have been used for centuries in traditional medical systems to cure various kinds of illnesses such as common cold, diabetes, cough and cancers. The aim of this work was the comparison between two different extractive techniques in order to get qualitati...
