We present herein a new and efficient four-component synthesis of isoxazol-5(2H)-ones involving ring closing/Knoevenagel condensation/Michael addition sequential reactions.

Highly substituted 1,4-dihydropyrano[2,3-c]pyrazole derivatives were synthesized by four-component reaction of aromatic aldehydes, malononitrile, ethyl acetoacetate and various phenylhydrazine, using nickel ferrite as a recyclable nanocatalyst by a grinding method under solvent-free and thermal conditions. The reaction has the advantages of good yields, less pollution, ease of separation of the...

2-Methylpyridinum p-toluenesulfonate ([2-MPy][p-TSA]) as a novel room temperature ionic liquidwas synthesized and evaluated as a recoverable catalyst for the one-pot synthesis ofhexahydroquinoline-3-carboxamide derivatives by four-component reaction of arylaldehydes,dimedone, acetoacetanilide and ammonium acetate in high to excellent yield in ethanol at 50 oC.The [2-MPy]...

An eco-safe and facile multi-component domino reaction has been described for the synthesis of 1H-pyrazolo [1, 2-b] phthalazine-5, 10-dione derivatives. The products were obtained by a four-component condensation reaction between phthalimide, hydrazine monohydrate, aromatic aldehyde derivatives and malononitrile in the presence of a catalytic amount of copper (II) oxide (CuO) ...
