eggshell was found to be a versatile heterogeneous catalyst for the synthesis of pyrano[3,2-c]quinoline derivatives in good yields. this protocol has the advantages of environmental friendliness, short reaction time, low cost and convenient operation.

an efficient and direct procedure for the synthesis of benzo[h]-indeno[1,2-b]-quinoline derivatives has been described. the procedure employs a three-component condensation reaction in one-pot using 2h-indene-1, 3-dione, naphthalen-1-amine,and aldehydes in the presence of catalytic amount of l-prolinein aqueous media.

Chemistry as a central science is facing a steadily increasing demand for new chemical entities (NCE). Innovative solutions, in all kinds of disciplines that depend on chemistry, require new molecules with specific properties, and their societal consequences are fundamental and pioneering. However, NCE not only demand a realistic structural space but also their feasibility poses challenges to s...

Stable derivatives of oxaphosphaphenanthrenes were prepared using multicomponent reactions of 3-bromo-2-naphthol, dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylate and trimethyl or triphenyl phosphite under microwave conditions with good yields. 

a mild and efficient one-pot three-component and environmentally benign approach for the synthesis of a wide range of hydantoin annulated derivatives has been described. a multi-component reaction between a carbonyl compounds (ketone or aldehyde), potassium cyanide and ammonium carbonate (as cyanating agent and amine source, respectively leads to the formation of hydantoins. the proposed optimi...
