A highly efficient and simple protocol for the synthesis of 2-amidoalkylphenols has been described. The one-pot multi-component condensation of phenols with aromatic aldehydes and amides in the presence of catalytic amount of SO3H-functionalized phthalimide (SFP) under solvent-free conditions afford the title compounds in high yields and relatively short reaction times. It is noteworthy that th...

phenytoine derivatives were synthesized , via the  pinacol condensation  with the  reaction of 1,3- diphenyl- propane- 1,3- dione (benzyl) analogs with urea or thiourea in presence of slica gel and solid KOH as Solid phase catalyst  in the mortar / pestle at room temperatures. The reaction was completed at short reaction times (approximately 15min) and pure products were obtained with high yiel...

an efficient one-pot condensation for the synthesis of 1,8-dioxo-octahydroxanthene is  achieved through a condensation of aryl aldehydes and 5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexandione in the presence of  nbs. this method enjoys several advantages such as low cost, simple work up procedure and safe reaction condition. in addition, water was chosen as a green solvent.
