One-pot multicomponent condensation of β-naphthol, aromatic aldehydes, acetamide or urea in the presence of potassium hydrogen sulfate was carried out under solvent-free condition to afford amidoalkyl naphthols in 83%~96% yields.

A convenient, one-pot, two-component synthesis of 2-(1-amidoalkyl)pyridines is reported, based upon the substitution of suitably-activated pyridine N-oxides by azlactone nucleophiles, followed by decarboxylative azlactone ring-opening. The synthesis obviates the need for precious metal catalysts to achieve a formal enolate arylation reaction, and constitutes a formally 'umpoled' approach to thi...

Amidoalkyl-2-naphthols as synthetic intermediates play an important role in medicinal chemistry due to their remarkable biological and many pharmacological properties. Owing to the versatile biological activities, industrial and synthetic applications of these compounds, introduction of an alternative methodology is urgent in synthetic organic chemistry. Low yield and harsh reaction conditions ...

For the first time lactic acid was applied as an efficient and green catalyst for the one-pot three-component synthesis of amidoalkyl naphthols via the condensation between arylaldehydes, 2-naphthol and amides or urea under thermal solvent-free conditions in good to excellent yields. We have demonestrated a mild and efficient eco-friendly tandem synthesis of amidoalkyl naphthols using lactic ac...

Supporting Information General methods. Infrared spectra were recorded on a Nicolet AVATAR-360 spectrometer. H NMR and C NMR spectra were recorded at Bruker AM-300 instruments. Low resolution mass spectra (m/z) were recorded on HP5989A. High-resolution mass spectra were recorded on Concept 1H or MALDI/DHB. Microanalyses were performed using a Elemantar Vario EL. All reaction flasks were dried b...
