An effective one-pot synthesis of dihydropyrimidinonoes in solvent free conditions using CuCl2 as an inexpensive and readily available reagent through Biginelli condensation reaction of aldehyde derivatives, 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds and urea is described. Excellent yields, short reaction times for formation of the products and simple work-up are attractive features of this green prot...

A simple and efficient procedure has been developed for the synthesis of 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones derivatives under solvent-free conditions. This method uses the condensation of isatoic anhydride, aldehydes, and amines in the presence of a catalytic amount Sulfonated Porous Carbon (SPC). One of the important advantages of the new method is that the SPC could be recycled and reused.

Sulfonic acid functionalized SBA-15 as a nanoporous acid catalyst was used in the synthesis of 2-Aryl benzoxazoles 4 by the condensation of 2-aminophenol 1 and benzoyl chlorides 2 under microwave irradiation in solvent free reaction conditions. The advantages of this methodology are good product yields (60-98%), being environmentally benign, short reaction times and easy work up.

The resulting electrocatalyst by low temperature and solvent-free mechanochemical synthesis displays an appropriate bifunctional performance.

Silica-bonded N-propyldiethylenetriamine sulfamic acid (SPDTSA) is employed as a recyclable heterogeneous solid acid catalyst for the synthesis of benzopyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidines  through one-pot condensation reaction of salicylaldehydes, malononitrile and secondary amines  at room temperature under solvent-free conditions. SPDTSA showed much the same efficiency when used in con...

Poly(4-vinylpyridine)-supported copper iodide nanoparticles is reported as a new, green and recyclable catalyst for the synthesis of aryl-14H-dibenzo [a-o] xanthenes under solvent-free conditions. This catalyst can be recovered by simple filtration and recycled up to 8 consecutive runs without any loss of their efficiency.

The efficient and environmentally friendly method for the one-pot synthesis of polyhydroquinolines has been developed in the presence of CuO nanoparticles. The multi-component reactions of aldehydes, dimedone, ethyl acetoacetate andammonium acetate were carried out under solvent-free conditions to afford some polyhydroquinoline derivatives. This method provides several advantages including high...

CuO-CeO2 nanocomposite is reported as a green and highly efficient recyclable catalyst for the multicomponent  synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones/thiones under solvent-free conditions. The catalyst was synthesized by co-precipitation method and characterized by XRD, BET specific surface area, FESEM and EDS analysis.

D-tartaric acid is successfully used as a green and efficient catalyst for the synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones under solvent-free conditions. The developed method has many advantages, including devoid of harmful catalyst and solvents, high yield and easily work-up.

Mechanochemical approaches are widely used for the efficient, solvent-free synthesis of organic molecules, however their applicability to functional polymers has remained underexplored. In Research Article (e202305783), Carsten Bolm, Andrij Pich, and co-workers developed a free-radical polymerization approach mechanochemically synthesize structurally morphologically well-defined complex macromo...
