molybdate sulfuric acid (msa) has been prepared and used as catalyst for the biginelli synthesis of some quinazolinones/thiones under solvent-free conditions. the catalyst loading is low and it shows recyclability. this method has advantages such as avoidance of the organic solvents, high yield of pure products, short reaction times and operational simplicity.

The efficiency of HZSM-5 Zeolite, tungestophosphoric acid (H3PW12O40) and tungestosililic acid (H4O40SiW12) were investigated in three-component, one-pot synthesis of coumarin dyes. These green and noncorrosive acids were highly efficient in synthesis of some coumarin dyes in excellent yield during concurrent formation of coumarin and benzimidazole or benzoxazole heterocycles (e.g. C. I. disper...

Due to the vast importance of peptides in biological processes, there is an escalating need for synthetic peptides to be used in a wide variety of applications. However, the consumption of organic solvent is extremely large in chemical peptide syntheses because of the multiple condensation steps in organic solvents. That is, the current synthesis method is not environmentally friendly. From the...

Hexane, the common solvent for extraction of edible oils from seeds is no more considered safe due to the presence of solvent in oil and also solvent vapour, a hazardous air pollutant. We have carried out the experiments with bahera (Terminalia bellerica Roxb) and flax seed (Linum usitatissimum ) oil as these oils are highly used in food for their nutraceutical values. The extraction of edible ...

A Simple and environmentally friendly  procedure for the one-pot multi-component synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one derivatives has been developed by one pot three component reaction of various aldehydes, β-dicarbonyl, and urea in the presence of catalytic amount of tris (trihexyltetradecylphosphonium) gadolinium hexachloride [P6,6,6,14]3 [GdCl6] as a solid acid catalyst without any ad...

Especially mild, organic solvent-free conditions have been found that allow for allylic ethers to undergo Pd-catalyzed aminations.
