The same reaction could ...

bifunctional acidic ionic liquids, having both h-imidazolium and -so3h groups as cation moieties (h-bfails) and cf3so3- as anion, were synthesized in high yields. these h-bfails showed significant hydrophilic properties, lower acidity and higher thermal stability relative to common ionic liquids, due to their unique structures. the (propyl or butyl-3-sulfonic) imidazolium trifluoromethane sulfo...

A convenient, efficient and practical procedure for the synthesis of 1-amidoalkyl 2-naphthols is described by condensation of aromatic aldehydes with amides and 2-naphthol in the presence of P2O5/SiO2 as an efficient catalyst. Moreover, in the present of this catalyst, the synthesis of 14-aryl or alkyl-14H-dibenzo[a,j]xanthenes is studied by co...
