An environmental friendly synthetic route for copper (II) chloride dihydrate catalyzed one-pot multicomponentsynthesis of biologically active high substituted dihydro-2-oxypyrroles has developed. The non-toxic, low-cost catalyst and eco-friendly and good to high yields are the notable benefits for the efficient synthesis of these products.
