The first tertiary amine-catalyzed multicomponent tandem Strecker-allylic-alkylation (SAA) reaction has been developed, which provides a facile access to functionalized α-amino nitriles, which could be readily converted into α-methylene-γ-butyrolactams.

The first ultrasound-promoted multicomponent synthesis of pyridazinones and phthalazinones from arenes, cyclic anhydrides and ArNHNH(2) in the presence of an efficient recyclable catalyst, [bmim]Br/AlCl(3), in high yield and short reaction time is reported.

We have developed a practical synthesis of unique nucleoside derivatives via TiCl(4) promoted multicomponent reaction of optically active dihydrofuran, ethyl pyruvate/glyoxylate, and a TMS protected nucleobase in a single-pot operation.

N-Methyl-3-acylpyrroles were synthesized via a multicomponent reaction of dimethylacetylene dicarboxylate (DMAD), N-methylhydroxylamine and acylchlorides in the presence of KHCO(3). For comparison both conventional and microwave protocols were examined in this procedure. The reaction is clean and gives the products in good to excellent yields under conventional heating conditions at 40 degrees ...

The first catalytic asymmetric pseudo five-component (AB(2)C(2) type) reaction is reported. A spirocyclic chiral phosphoric acid catalyzed one-pot multicomponent reaction of aromatic aldehydes, anilines and β-ketoesters and afforded highly functionalized enantioenriched tetrahydropyridines with high levels of stereocontrol.

A highly efficient Bi(OTf)3-catalyzed multicomponent synthesis of arylglycines from readily available starting materials is described. The reaction proceeds under mild conditions and provides a general route to various N-protected arylglycines.

In this study, silica nanoparticles were used as support to prepare a new heterogeneous catalyst system for application in organic reactions. The reaction of silica nanoparticles with sodium 2-bromoethane-1-sulfonate resulted in the connection of a sulfonic acid group on the surface of silica nanoparticles (NSESA). The synthetic catalyst system was characterized using different microscopic and ...

The catalyst-free multicomponent reaction of 1,2-diaminobenzene, dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates, and ethyl bromopyruvate forms pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxaline derivatives in good yields. Ethylenediamine also reacts under similar conditions to produce new pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine derivatives.

An efficient chemoselective process for the synthesis of 14- and 15-membered triazole-containing macrocycle compounds has been developed through the combination of two multicomponent reactions and an intramolecular Sonogashira cross-coupling reaction.
