ZrP2O7 nanoparticles (NPs) as an efficient catalyst have been used for the preparation of 1,6-diamino-2- oxo-4-phenyl-1,2-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarbonitrile derivatives via one-pot coupling of hyrazine hydrate, ethyl cyanoacetate, malononitrile and aromatic aldehydes under reflux conditions in ethanol. Using this method we obtained low reaction times, easy isolation of the targeted molecules, e...

The synthesis of 3-methyl-1,4-diphenyl-7-thioxo-4,6,8,9-tetrahydropyrazolo[5,4-b] pyrimidino[5,4-e]pyridine-5-one (6) was achieved by two different one-pot multi-component synthesis (one-pot three-component and one-pot four component synthesis). Mono and dialkylation of 6 under different conditions gave compounds 7-11. The hydrazine 12 produced from reaction of 9 with N₂H₄ was subjected to reac...

A series of 3'-aminospiro[indoline-3,1'-pyrazolo[1,2-b]phthalazine]-2,5',10'-trione derivatives have been synthesized by a one-pot three-component reaction of isatin, malononitrile or ethyl cyanoacetate and phthalhydrazide catalyzed by piperidine under ultrasound irradiation. For comparison the reactions were carried out under both conventional and ultrasonic conditions. In general, improvement...

N-Aryl-C-ethoxycarbonylnitrile imines (3a-g) react with ethyl cyanoacetate 1 in 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition to yield novel pyrazole-3,4-dicarboxylates (4a-g) in moderate yields. The reaction of pyrazole-3,4-dicarboxylates (4a, d) with hydrazine afforded pyrazolo[4,3-d]pyridazine-4,7-diones (5a, d) in good yields. All compounds were fully characterized by spectroscopic methods. Some of the newly s...

The cycloalkylation of diethyl malonate and ethyl cyanoacetate with alkyl dihalide was investigated by using comminuted potassium carbonate as a base and toluene as a solvent in the presence of hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (HTMAB) as a phase-transfer catalyst, which provided a conventional procedure with the advantage of short reaction period and high product yield. The factors influencin...

Silica sodium carbonate (SSC) has been used as a valuable silica-supported catalyst for the preparation of a range of known and novel pyrano coumarins via the three-component reactions of aryl aldehydes, active methylene compound (malononitrile or ethyl cyanoacetate), and hydroxycoumarin (5,7-dihydroxy-4-substituted coumarins or 4-hydroxycoumarin). The heterogeneous catalyst showed much the sam...

Egg shell has been utilized as a natural, green, reusable and eco-friendly reagent for the synthesis of spiro[4H-pyran-oxindole] derivatives by one-pot multicomponent reaction of isatins, 1,3-diketones, and malononitrile/ ethyl cyanoacetate. Good functional group tolerance and broad scope of usable substrates are other prominent features of the present methodology.
