چکیده
A variety of aldehydes and ketones have been reduced to their corresponding alcohols within 30-240 secondswith excellent yields (92-97%) of products by LiBH4 under microwave irradiation in H2O as green solvent.

Microwave-Assisted Efficient and Chemoselective Acetalization of Aldehydes with Trimethyl Orthoformate
Efficient and chemoselective protection of aldehydes to the corresponding dimethyl acetals have been carried out by mixture of trimethyl orthoformate and methanol in the presence of a catalytic amount of TMSCl or AlCl3 under microwave irradiation. Under these conditions, acetalization of ketones does not take place and they remain intact under reaction conditions. The results are compared with ...
متن کاملMicrowave assisted green synthesis of α, ά- bis (substituted- benzylidene) alkanones
Microwave assisted green synthesis of α, ά- bis (substituted- benzylidene) alkanones by the crossed- aldol condensation reaction of substituted aryl aldehydes with ketones in the presence of catalytic amount of NbCl5 in good to excellent yields. This reaction is carried out under solvent-free conditions. The results showed that aldehydes bearing electron–donating substituent's on phenyl-ring fa...
متن کاملMontmorillonite clay-promoted, solvent-free cross-aldol condensations under focused microwave irradiation.
An environmentally benign, clean and general protocol was developed for the synthesis of aryl and heteroaryl trans-chalcones. This method involved solvent-free reaction conditions under microwave irradiation in the presence of a clay-based catalyst, and afforded the target compounds in good yields and short reaction times. Furthermore, the same conditions allowed the synthesis of symmetrical, d...
متن کاملTonsil Clay as a Green Catalyst for Rapid and Efficient Reduction of Aldehydes and Ketones with NaBH3CN
Reduction of aldehydes and ketones to the corresponding alcohols in the presence of sodium cyanoborohdride as reductive agent and Tonsil clay as catalyst under solvent free conditions was investigated. Tonsil (catalyst) decreased the reduction time of each aldehyde and ketone to proportional alcohols in comparison with their reduction in the absence of catalyst with high degree purity of alcoho...
متن کاملOne-Pot Synthesis of Some New α-Bromoketals and Acetals via 1,8-Diazabicyclo[5.4.0] Undec-7-ene-Hydrobromide-Perbromide
α-Bromoketals and acetals are important synthetic precursors in organic synthesis. In this work, some new α-bromoketals are synthesized by the reaction of aryl methyl ketones with diols in the presence of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0] undec-7-ene (DBU) hydrobromide-perbromide in good isolated yields. The latter compound converts aldehydes to acetals and serves as a new and efficient reagent for t...
