A bifunctional covalent organic framework (COF) has been illustrated in the context of partial metalation of a highly porous and chemically robust pyridine containing COF (COF-TpPa-Py) with Pd species and by taking advantage of the base catalytic behavior of pyridine. The resultant bifunctionalized COF exhibits excellent performance in catalyzing one-pot cascade aerobic oxidation–Knoevenagel co...

Highly efficient CuI nanoparticles catalyzed one-pot synthesis of some benzo[b][1,5]diazepine derivatives via multi-component condensation of aromatic diamines, Meldrum's acid and isocyanides. The present approach creates a variety of benzo[b][1,5]diazepines as pharmaceutical and biologically active heterocyclic compounds in excellent yields and short reaction times. The salient features of the...

Efficient one-pot methods for the synthesis of variously functionalised conjugated nitro alkenes have been reported. Despite the utility in different fields of these compounds, only a few multi-step syntheses have been reported in the literature, giving the target compounds in low overall yields. α-Nitro acrylates or cinnamates, α-nitro α,β-unsaturated ketones and, most importantly, aromatic an...

The Acylase "Amano" (AA)-catalyzed synthesis of valuable pyridin-2-ones via domino Knoevenagel condensation-Michael addition-intramolecular cyclization-oxidization reaction between aldehyde, cyanoacetamide and ethyl acetoacetate or cyclohexyl acetoacetate was developed in the sense of a one-pot strategy. Various aliphatic, aromatic and hetero-aromatic pyridin-2-ones could also be produced in th...

in this work, the efficiency, generality and applicability of new bronsted acidic ionic liquid (bail) 1-methyl-3-(2-(sulfooxy)ethyl)-1h-imidazol-3-ium chloride {[msei]cl} as heterogeneous and green catalyst for organic transformations are studied. herein, the following one-pot multi-component reactions in the presence of [msei]cl are investigated: (i) the synthesis of quinoxaline derivatives fr...

A ligand free, Palladium nanoparticles catalyzed synthesis of pyran derivatives using C-H activated compound, malononitrile and aryl aldehyde via Knoevenagel condensation followed by Michael addition reaction using Palladium nanoparticles as catalyst in one-pot is described herein. The advantages of this method lie in its simplicity, low catalyst loading, cost effectiveness and easy to handle. ...

ABSTRACT : Dihydropyrimidines (DHPMs) are of much importance due to excellent pharmacological properties. In this account we have synthesized new functionalized DHPMs (a) 5-benzoyl-6-methyl-4-phenyl-3,4dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one (KT-01) and (b) 5-benzoyl-4-(4-chlorophenyl)-6-methyl-3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one (KT-03) in two step reaction. The first step involves the synthesis of benzoylaceto...

An efficient and convenient synthesis of novel tetrahydrobenzo[c]acridin-8(7H)-one derivatives is described using the electrogenerated anion of acetonitriles as the base in the presence of tetrabutylammonium fluoride as an effective supporting electrolyte in a one-pot, three-component condensation of aromatic aldehyde, dimedone and 1-naphthyl amine. The reaction is carried out in an undivided c...

Highly functionalized multisubstituted 1,4-dihydropyridines 5 have been concisely synthesized in moderate to good yields via L-proline-catalyzed one-pot multicomponent reactions (MCRs) of alkynoates or alkynones 1, amines 2, beta-dicarbonyl compounds 3 and aldehydes 4 under mild conditions. The MCR process involves hydroamination/Knoevenagel condensation/Michael-type addition/intramolecular cyc...

A novel series of biscoumarin (1-4) and dihydropyran (5-13) derivatives were synthesized via a one-pot multicomponent condensation reaction and evaluated for antibacterial and antitumor activity in vitro. The X-ray crystal structure analysis of four representative compounds, 3, 7, 9 and 11, confirmed the structures of these compounds. Compounds 1-4 showed the most potent antitumor activity amon...
