MgO nanopartticels (NP-MgO) in average size between 30—130 nm were prepared by sonochemistry method. Some phenols have been converted to ortho-hydroxybezaldehyd by ortho-formylation using MgO nanoparticles and (CH2O)n in xylene and subsequently treated with aqueous NH2OH.HCl, affording the corresponding aldoxime in a one-pot procedure. Moreover, this one-pot process, with two transformations, o...

An efficient and direct procedure for the synthesis of benzo[h]-indeno[1,2-b]-quinoline derivatives has been described. The procedure employs a three-component condensation reaction in one-pot using 2H-indene-1, 3-dione, naphthalen-1-amine,and aldehydes in the presence of catalytic amount of L-prolinein aqueous media.

We developed a one-pot, two-stage synthetic route to substituted 4-aminoquinolines involving an imidoylative Sonogashira coupling followed by acid-mediated cyclization. This three-component reaction affords pharmaceutically valuable 4-aminoquinolines in a one-pot procedure from readily available starting materials. The reaction tolerates various substituents on the arene as well as the use of s...

Freshly prepared ZnO nanoparticles were used as an effective heterogeneous base catalyst for the synthesis of aryloximes. The conversion of arylaldehydes and arylketones into the corresponding oximes (up to quantitative yields) was achieved by simply mixing the liquid reactants and hydroxylamine hydrochloride with ZnO nanoparticles under solvent-free condition. The procedure was carried out und...

A concise and efficient synthetic approach to producing a novel non-cyclic nucleotide EPAC antagonist ESI-09 and its new analogs is reported. Key features of the synthesis include a mild and reliable one-pot procedure for an isoxazole synthon, as well as a modified one-pot protocol for the cyanomethyl ketone key intermediate. The synthesis requires inexpensive starting materials and only three ...
