Abstract A novel basic ionic liquid based on imidazolium cation is designed, synthesized and successfully used as a catalyst for the one-pot synthesis of 4-Oxo-6-aryl-2-thioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidine-5-carbonitrile derivatives. The remarkable features of this new catalyst are its ethyleneoxy bridge which participates in dissolving organic compound in the ionic liquid and its strong base co...

Dihydropyrimidine and amidoalkyl naphthol derivatives have been prepared efficiently in a one-pot synthesis using ZnCl2/urea and ZnCl2/acetamide deep eutectic systems as reaction medium and homogeneous catalyst. This method offers some advantages such as simple procedure, inexpensive solvent and catalyst and good yields of the final products in short reaction times. The use of non-toxic and env...

an efficient green route for the preparation of naphthoxazinones, applying a three-component one-pot condensation reaction of 2-naphthol, aromatic aldehyde and urea in the presence of nano silica supported ferric chloride under solvent-free conditions has been developed. the present procedure offers several advantages such as short reaction time, simple workup, recovery and reusability of the c...

[reaction: see text] A one-pot reaction for Cu(II)-catalyzed diazo transfer and Cu(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (sometimes called click reaction) is reported. 1,4-Disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles are obtained in excellent yields from a variety of readily available amines without the need for isolation of the azide intermediates. The reaction has a broad scope and is especial...

A microwave-assisted, one-pot, two-step protocol was developed for the construction of polysubstituted 2-aminoimidazoles. This process involves the sequential formation of imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidinium salts from readily available 2-aminopyrimidines and alpha-bromocarbonyl compounds, followed by opening of the pyrimidine ring with hydrazine.

BACKGROUND The classical Strecker reaction is one of the simplest and most economical methods for the synthesis of racemic α-aminonitriles (precursor of α-amino acids) and pharmacologically useful compounds. RESULTS Indium powder in water is shown to act as a very efficient catalyst for one-pot, three-component synthesis of α-aminonitriles from diverse amines, aldehydes and TMSCN. This genera...

Bicyclic isoxazolines and isoxazoles are obtained in good yields by proceeding through a convenient one-pot, two-step procedure utilizing 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine (TCT) as a dehydrating agent.

5-Substituted and 5,5-disubstituted hydantoins are synthesised from the corresponding aldehydes or ketones, using a one-pot, gallium(III) triflate-catalysed procedure that is compatible with a range of substrates and solvents.
