An efficient tandem synthesis of alkyl aryl ethers, including valuable building blocks of dialdehyde and dinitro groups under microwave irradiation and solvent free conditions on potassium carbonate as a mild solid base has been developed. A series of alkyl aryl ethers were obtained from alcohols in excellent yields by following the Williamson ether synthesis protocol under practical mild condi...

In this study, β-cyclodextrin(β-CD) supported, hydroxyapatite encapsulated γ-Fe2O3 (γ-Fe2O3@HAp@β-CD) was successfully prepared and evaluated as a solid-liquid phase transfer catalyst and also a molecular host system and nanoreactor for the nucleophilic ring-opening of epoxides in water for the preparation of β-azido alcohols, β-nitro alcohols, an...

a simple, mild and practical procedure has been developed for the synthesis of symmetrical and unsymmetrical ethers by using dmso, tbai in the presence of k2co3. we extended the utility of  potassium carbonate as an efficient base for the preparation of ethers. a wide range of alkyl aryl and dialkyl ethers are synthesized from treatment of aliphatic alcohols and phenols with various alkyl halid...

A direct and an efficient conversion of a wide range of primary, secondary even tertiary alcohols to the corresponding iodides have been achieved under ionic liquid conditions. The method involves preparation of ionic liquid-based iminium chloride intermediate from DMF-like ionic liquid then stirring it with alcohol in present of sodium iodide. The higher yields of alkyl iodides were obtained w...

a mild, efficient and fast method for the oxidation of alcohols and trimethylsilyl and tetrahydropyranyl ethers to their corresponding carbonyl compounds using cro3 in the presence of sulfonic acid functionalized ordered nanoporous na+-montmorillonite (sanm) and under solvent-free conditions is reported. all reactions were performed at room temperature in high to excellent yields. ease of the p...

The preparation of chiral alcohols and amines by using iridium catalysis is reviewed. The methods presented include the reduction of ketones or imines by using hydrogen (hydrogenations), isopropanol, formic acid, or formate (transfer hydrogenations). Also dynamic and oxidative kinetic resolutions leading to chiral alcohols and amines are included. Selected literature reports from early contribu...
