A practical and green approach for the one-pot multicomponent synthesis of fused tetrazolo[1,5-a]quinazoline derivatives has been described via the condensation of 5- aminotetrazole, dimedone, and various aldehydes using 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrachloroaluminate [bmim]Cl/AlCl3, as a catalyst and task-specific ionic liquid medium. The catalyst was showed remarkable advantages in compariso...

A series of 2-amino pyridine-3-carbinitrile derivatives incorporated coumarin moiety has developed via multicomponent condensation of 3-acetyl-2H-chromen-2-one, arylaldehydes, malononitrile and ammonium acetate utilizing Brønsted acidic ionic liquid, (4-sulfobutyl)tris(4-sulfophenyl)phosphonium hydrogen sulfate as catalyst under solvent-free conditions. Good yields, short reaction times, straig...

Multicomponent reactions are employed extensively in many areas of organic chemistry. Despite significant progress, the discovery of such enabling transformations remains challenging. Here, we present the development of a parallel, label-free reaction-discovery platform that can be used in the identification of new multicomponent transformations. Our approach is based on parallel mass spectrome...

In this study a multicomponent reaction involving carbohydrate derivatives as the main component in order to prepare a new library of polyhydroxy compounds incorporating pyrimidine-fused heterocycles (PFHs) is introduced. A set of polyhydroxy functionalized PFHs were synthesized using multicomponent reactions of sugar (glucose, galactose, arabinose and lactose), barbituric acid and amines. Also...

Since alcohols are accessible from indigestible biomass (lignocellulose), the development of novel preferentially catalytic reactions in which alcohols are converted into important classes of fine chemicals is a central topic of sustainable synthesis. Multicomponent reactions are especially attractive in organic chemistry as they allow the synthesis of large libraries of diversely functionalize...

A novel multicomponent condensation, leading to the rare (Z)-chloromethyleneketals and their sulfur analogues, has been discovered. The mechanism of this reaction has been studied in some detail and subsequent modifications were performed on the adducts, leading to unusual Umpolung transforms.

A highly diastereoselective tandem ring-enlargement and aldol condensation process involving multicomponent reactions of ethereal tricyclooxonium ylide intermediate with alcohols, mono- or dialdehydes in the presence of titanium(iv) isopropoxide is described to furnish alkoxyoctahydro-1,4-benzodioxocin-6(5H)-one ring systems.
