Herein we present a three-component one-pot procedure to synthesize co-oligomers of a donor-acceptor-donor type, in which thiophene moieties work as donor and 1,2,3-triazoles as acceptor units. In this respect, terminally ethynylated (oligo)thiophenes were coupled to halogenated (oligo)thiophenes in the presence of sodium azide and a copper catalyst. Optoelectronic properties of various thiophe...

An efficient and direct protocol for the preparation of amidoalkylnaphthols employing a multi-component, one-pot condensation reaction of 2-naphthol, aromatic aldehydes and acetamide or benzamide in the presence of graphite supported perchloric acid under solvent-free conditions is described. The thermal solvent-free procedure offers advantages such as simple work-up, shorter reaction times and...

Aliphatic C-H functionalization at indole 2α-position mediated by acyloxythionium species 1 generated from sulfoxide and acid anhydride has been developed. The combination of sulfoxide and TFAA with O-, N- and C-nucleophiles enabled introduction of various substituents in a one-pot procedure. Especially on utilizing DMSO, the combination provided a practical and efficient method for the synthes...

A simple and efficient strategy for the synthesis of indane-1,3-dione derivatives through a palladium(0)-catalyzed reaction incorporating tert-butyl isocyanide has been developed. In addition, by applying this protocol as the key step, indenopyrazole derivatives can be easily synthesized in high yields in a one-pot procedure. This methodology is tolerant of a wide range of substrates and applic...

The synthesis of a variety of 2,3-disubstituted quinolines has been achieved successfully via a one-pot three-component reaction of arylamines, arylaldehydes and aliphatic aldehydes in the presence of butylpyridinium tetrachloroindate(III), [bpy][InCl4], ionic liquid as a green catalyst and solvent. Mild conditions with excellent conversions, and simple product isolation procedure are noteworth...

Mg-mediated addition of bromoform to electron deficient imines such as N-sulfonylimines affords α-tribromomethylated N-sulfonylamines in good to excellent yields. The procedure could be further simplified by transforming the imine precursors, α-sulfonyl-N-tosyl- and Boc-amines, in one pot to the corresponding α-tribromomethyl derivatives. Facile removal of the Boc protecting group in nearly qua...

A new method for the synthesis of Cl-BODIPYs from F-BODIPYs is reported, merely requiring treatment of the F-BODIPY with boron trichloride. Cl-BODIPYs are exploited as synthetic intermediates generated in situ for the overall conversion of F-BODIPYs to O- and C-BODIPYs in high overall yields using a mild one-pot procedure. This route enables F-BODIPYs to be transformed into derivatives that are...

A series of pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidines derivatives have been prepared by one-pot three-component reaction of 4(6)aminouracil, malononitrile and aromatic aldehydes. This efficient synthesis was done under microwave irradiation conditions (method A) and also using catalytic amount of diammonium hydrogen phosphate [(NH4)2HPO4] (DAHP) in aqueous media (method B). This procedure has the advantages of ...

An exceptionally stereoselective and general synthesis of (Z)-α-haloacrylates, ready to undergo various synthetic transformations, has been demonstrated from α-haloacetates and aldehydes in a one-pot manner via the titanium-enolate based asymmetric aldol condensation. Besides being an expedient synthetic procedure, the ready availability of diverse α-haloacetates, exceptional stereoselectivity,...

An efficient procedure has been researched for the solvent-free synthesis of bis(indolyl)methanes via a one-pot reaction of indoles and aldehydes or ketones promoted by PEG1000-based dicationic acidic ionic liquid (PEG1000-DAIL). The catalyst PEG1000-DAIL could be reused seven times with excellent results. Furthermore, through this method, a highly chemoselective reaction of benzaldehyde and ac...
