a highly efficient procedure for the synthesis of 1,8-dioxo-octahydroxanthenes under mild, green and solvent-free condition by using hosa as a dual role catalyst is described. this is the first report of catalytic activity of hosa.

Cellulose sulfuric acid is an efficient metal-free catalyst for the synthesis of 1,3,5-trisubstituted pyrazoles via the condensation of 1,3-diketones and hydrazines. The reaction was carried out in Solvent-free condition at room temperature and the products were isolated in good to excellent yields. Mild reaction conditions, as well as ease of operation and workup are some advantages of the pro...

Highly efficient method for the preparation of N-tert-butyl amides by reaction of nitriles with tertbutylacetateis described using boron trifluoride etherate in solvent free condition. Selective amidation ofbenzonitrile in the presence of acetonitrile was also achieved.

A simple, green synthesis of N-alkyl-3-acetyl-2-methylpyrrole derivatives using ZnO nanoparticles from the three component reaction of aliphatic amines, acetylacetone (as a 1,3-dicarbonyl compound) and α-haloketones under solvent-free condition is described.

CdO nanoparticles efficiently catalyzes the condensation of aromatic aldehydes with 2-aminophenol at room temperature to afford 2-aryl benzoxazole derivatives by grinding method. The reactions proceed under heterogeneous and mild conditions to provide 2-aryl benzoxazoles in excellent yields (87-97 %) with high purity under solvent free condition. The reaction requires short time (5-23 minutes) ...

Reduction of aldehydes and ketones to the corresponding alcohols in the presence of sodium cyanoborohdride as reductive agent and Tonsil clay as catalyst under solvent free conditions was investigated. Tonsil (catalyst) decreased the reduction time of each aldehyde and ketone to proportional alcohols in comparison with their reduction in the absence of catalyst with high degree purity of alcoho...
