one-pot preparation of 2,4,5-trisubstituted and 1,2,4,5-tetrasubstituted imidazoles has been conducted in the presence of poly(4-vinylpyridinium butane sulfonic acid) hydrogen sulfate, p(4vpbsa)hso4, as an efficient dual acidic catalyst under solvent-free conditions. reusability of the catalyst, easy work-up procedure, eco-friendly reaction conditions, short reaction times and high yields of th...

synthesis of some new monocyclic β-lactams containing a quaternary carbon center via a [2+2]cycloaddition reaction is described. the reaction of achiral diphenyl ketene with chiral aldimines derivedfrom chiral 2, 3, 4, 6-tetra-o-acetyl-β-d-galactopyranosylamine, 2, 3, 4, 6-tetra-o-acetyl-β-dglucopyranosylamine and different benzaldehydes resulted in the formation of β-lactams as singlediastereo...

In this study, an efficient and green process for the synthesis of dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones from aromatic benzaldehydes, ethyl acetoacetate and urea using Al-MCM-41 as heterogeneous catalyst and microreactor under solvent-free conditions has been developed. The advantages of this method are easy work-up procedure, regeneration of the catalyst, clean and neutral reaction conditions.

Nano-peanut shell‑OSO3H nanoparticles were simply prepared and characterized by the scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and thermal analysis techniques (TGA/DTG). The catalytic activity of nano-peanut shell‑OSO3H was studied in the synthesis of biological...

a series of n-substituted-2,4-thiazolidinedione derivatives (tzds) were prepared via n-alkylation of 2,4-tzd at position 3 using substituted benzyl halides. synthesized n-substituted-2,4-tzd was then substituted at position 5 with substituted aromatic aldehyde according to knoevenagel condensation method. structures of the compounds were elucidated using various spectral techniques viz. ir, 1hn...

We report the photocatalytic oxidation of benzylic carbon atoms under mild conditions using riboflavin tetraacetate as photocatalyst and blue-emitting LEDs (440 nm) as light source. Oxygen is the terminal oxidant and hydrogen peroxide appears as the only byproduct in most cases. The process oxidizes toluene derivatives, stilbenes, styrenes and phenylacetic acids to their corresponding benzaldeh...

A Cu(i)-catalyzed retro-aldol reaction of β-hydroxyketones with ortho-aminobenzaldehydes and nicotinaldehydes is reported that produces a range of quinolines and naphthyridines with high efficiency and selectivity. This reaction uses β-hydroxyketones as a regiospecific ketone-protected enolate source via copper-catalyzed retro-aldol Cα-Cβ bond cleavage. The in situ generated copper enolate unde...

A series of regioisomers for dithiafulvenyl-substituted phenylacetylene derivatives was synthesized and characterized to show structure-dependent electronic properties and different reactivities in their oxidized states.
