Recently, biosynthesis of nanoparticles has received attention due to an increasing need of developing rapid, simple and ecofriendly protocol. Pathogenicity of some of the organisms and lengthy reaction are the drawbacks involved with biosynthesis. We describe a simple protocol for rapid synthesis of silver nanoparticles through biological route using a marine-derived fungus Aspergillus niger. ...

in this study, the synthesis of 4 h -chromenes of biological activity via a multicomponent reaction of dimedone, aromatic aldehydes and malononitrile catalyzed by glutamic acid as a catalyst was investigated. the structural features of the synthesized compounds were characterized by melting point, ir and 1 h nmr analysis. the catalyst being reported here is cheap, safe to handle and the whole p...

the present study aimed to use a method for the synthesis of some 3, 4-dihydropyrimidin-2-(1h) - ones/thiones. the study tried to answer the question whether this reaction can be performed without solvent and with new catalyst or not. to find answer to the question, we described a novel protocol for the efficient synthesis of 3, 4-dihydropyrimidin-2-(1h)-one derivatives using aromatic aldehyde,...

Although water-soluble synthetic polymers find wide applications as flocculants, the potential problem associated with their use is lack of biodegradability and high cost. Polysaccharides owing to their distinctive features like ability to undergo different chemical reactions, biodegradability and sustainability inspire hope to obtain effective, economical viable and safe substitute of the synt...

The stoichiometric use of hydrogen peroxide in the presence of a selenium-containing catalyst in water is here reported as a new ecofriendly protocol for the synthesis of variously functionalized carboxylic acids and esters. The method affords the desired products in good to excellent yields under very mild conditions starting directly from commercially available aldehydes. Using benzaldehyde a...

Sulfated tungstate catalyzed an efficient and ecofriendly protocol has been described for the synthesis of 2-substituted benzothiazoles. The corresponding benzothiazoles were obtained using a condensation reaction 2-aminothiophenol with various aldehydes under ultrasound irradiation at room temperature. Various functional groups on as well tolerated to provide derivatives in excellent yields. f...

The vanadium-based catalyst, acts as a homogeneous catalyst for the selective oxidation of various kinds of sulfides with 30% aqueous H2O2. Vanadium-based catalyst was successfully used as the oxygen source for the oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides for the first time. The sulfoxides were obtained in a good way to high yields without any detectable over-oxidation to sulfones under normal condi...

The Fe-MCM-22 zeolite was found to be an efficient solid heterogeneous catalyst for synthesis of dihydropyrano [2,3-c] pyrazoles via one pot four component reaction of ethyl acetoacetate, hydrazine hydrate, aromatic aldehyde and malononitrile in aqueous alcohol. The catalyst was synthesized by hydrothermal method under autogenous pressure and modified by Fe (III) ion exchange. The prepared cata...
