An environmentally friendly, one-pot, three-component synthesis of 8,10-dimethyl-12-aryl-12H-naphtho[1′,2′:5,6]pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidine-9,11-diones was achieved via coupling aromatic of aldehydes, β-naphthol and 6-amino-1,3-dimethyl uracil in the presence of formic acid as a catalyst under solvent-free conditions at 90 °C. This method has several advantages, such as efficiency, good yield, short...

A green and highly effective solvent-free protocol has been reported for the synthesis of N,N′-alkylidene bisamides via the reaction of arylaldehydes (1 eq.) with primary amides (2 eq.) in the presence of saccharin-N-sulfonic acid (SaSA) as a solid-acid catalyst. The mentioned compounds have been obtained in high yields and short reaction times.

a simple, efficient, and high yielding one-pot protocol has been developed for the synthesis of 4h-benzo[b]pyrans scaffolds installing a three-component tandem knoevenagel-cyclocondensation reaction of an aldehyde, malononitrile and dimedone using guanidinium chloride as polyfunctional organocatalyst under solvent-free conditions in high to excellent yields. various aromatic aldehydes were util...

Enzyme cost is the major problem for industrial scale application. Immobilization is a promising approach to moderate the enzyme cost factor and increase its stability and activity. In this study, sol-gel method was used to prepare the immobilization platform and entrapped lipase as one of the most used enzyme in dairy processing, cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries. Lipase from Candida rug...

In this research, a Brønsted acidic ionic liquid namely N1,N1,N2,N2-tetramethyl-N1,N2-bis(sulfo)ethane-1,2-diaminium chloride {[TMBSED][Cl]2} was employed as a highly efficient catalyst for the solvent-free production of some nitrogen- and oxygen-containing heterocyclic compounds including: (i) polyhydroquinolines (from arylaldehydes, dimedone, β-ketoesters and ammonium acetate), (ii) 3,4-dihyd...

A simple, green and efficient method for synthesis of 2,4,5-trisubstituted imidazoles is described via three-component cyclocondensation of benzil or benzoin, aldehyde and ammonium acetate by using the nano SiO2-supported ferric hydrogen sulfate (FHS/SiO2), as a catalyst, under solvent-free conditions. The nano SiO2 support and catalyst were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmissio...

One-pot reaction of aldehydes or ketons with aniline derivatives was performed using NaBH4 and Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). The optimum amount of Fe3O4 MNPs was 5 mol% under solvent free condition. The corresponding products were obtained in good to excellent yields. The magnetically recoverable iron oxide nanoparticles are found to be efficient for synthesis of amine derivatives. These...

A facile and efficient protocol for the synthesis of 1,8-dioxo-octahydroxanthenes has been developed by one-pot Knoevenagel condensation, Michael addition and cyclodehydration reaction of dimedone (active methylene carbonyl compound) with aromatic aldehydes in the presence of Iron (III) sulfate hydrate as a solid acidic catalyst under solvent-free conditions. Various aromatic aldehydes were uti...

Selectfluor [1-(chloro methyl) -4-flouro -1,4-di azonia bicyclo[2,2,2] octane bis (tetraflouro-borate)] catalyzed the preparation of quinoxaline and 2,3-dihydo pyrazine derivatives through one -pot condensation of 1,2-di amines with 1,2-di carbonyls in solvent and under solvent- free conditions. This catalyst is commercially available, inexpensive, reusable, stable to air and moisture, and rela...
