We have introduced a selective synthesis of tertiary amines using alkyl halide and ammonium salts as the amine sources in water. This green process has outstanding superiorities, such as being eco-friendly, possessing ammonium salts, and using water as a green solvent in the absence of organic ligands or catalysts. It is worth mentioning that the presence of t-Butyl alcohol and potassi...

A green low-cost and reproducible yeast mediated synthesis of silver nanoparticles is reported. The synthesis is performed at room temperature. X-ray and transmission electron microscopy analyses are performed to ascertain the formation of Ag nanoparticles. Nanoparticles almost spherical in shape having a size of 6-20 nm are found.

Phospho sulfonic acid (PSA) synthesized as an environmentally safe and efficient solid acid catalyst, and it used for the synthesis of several 2-disubstituted benzimidazoles, 2-substituted benzoxazoles, and 2-substituted quinoxalines in ethanol as a green solvent at ambient temperature is described. (i) A very simple, green and efficient procedure for the synthesis of benzimidazole and also benz...

a simple and efficient one-pot three-component synthesis of the biologically important spirooxindole-4h-pyrans was carried out by the reaction of isatin, activated methylene reagents, and 4-hydroxycoumarin in aqueous medium. sba-pr-nh2 was found to be an efficient heterogeneous nanoporous solid basic catalyst (pore size of 6 nm) which can be easily handled and removed from the reaction mixture ...

zno nanostructures have been synthesized by a simple reflux method, using different ionic liquids, such as 1-benzyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide ([bzmim][br]), 1,1'-(1,4 phenylenebis (methylene)) bis (3-methyl-1h-imidazol-3-ium) bromide ([mm-1,4-dbzim2][br]2) and 1-phenacyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide ([pmim][br]), with different amount of sodium hydroxide in water. also the effect of reaction t...
