In the present work, we have developed a mild, efficient, and environmentally benign method for the synthesis of tetrahydrobenzo[b]pyran derivatives via a three-component cyclocondensation of aldehydes, malononitrile and dimedone utilizing ammonium chloride as a simple, easily available and cost effective catalyst under microwave irradiation. This method has several attracting features such as ...

Edge functionalization of graphene layers is great interest in the field materials chemistry: properties are substantially unaltered and its compatibility chemical reactivity with various environments can be tuned. In this work, edge was performed a 2-pyrone, ethyl 3-hydroxy-2-oxo-2H-pyran-6-carboxylate (Pyr-COOEt). 2-Pyrones C-6 unsaturated heterocyclic sugar derivatives intriguing building bl...

In this work, a simple and economical procedure for the synthesis of spiro-4H-pyranderivatives has been found through the three-component, one-pot condensation of isatin/acenaphthequinone, malononitrile and different reagents including 1, 3-dicrbonyl compounds, naphthol and 4-hydroxycumarin under thermal and solvent-free conditions in the presence ofFe2O<su...

We designed a ceria-vanadia/silica (Ce-V/SiO2) heterogeneous catalyst and used it for the green and efficient synthesis of 2-amino-3-cyano-4H-pyran derivatives. The green reaction was a multicomponent one-pot condensation of 5,5-dimethylcyclohexane-1,3-dione, aromatic aldehyde, and malononitrile in an eco-compatible solvent (ethanol). The catalyst was synthesized and fully characterized by powd...

A simple, efficient, and green practical approach to Knoevenagel condensation of malononitrile and different aldehydes has been developed using an ionic liquid functionalized on Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles as heterogeneous catalyst. This nanostructural catalyst has also been applied for the synthesis of 4H-benzo[b]pyran derivatives in water at room temperature in short reaction time. All of th...

Aldehydes undergo a smooth coupling with (E/Z)-non-3-en-8-yn-1-ol in the presence of 10 mol% of CuX and BF3·OEt2 under mild conditions to produce a novel class of octahydrocyclohepta[c]pyran-6(1H)-one derivatives in good yields with excellent diastereoselectivity through a sequential Prins/alkynylation/hydration. This is the first report on the termination of Prins cyclization with a tethered a...
