p-dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid (dbsa) was used as a catalyst for a simple and efficient one-pot synthesis of aryl substititued tetrahydrobenzo[b]pyrans and dihydropyrano[c]chromens via initial knoevenagel, subsequent micheal and final heterocyclization reactions of aryl aldehyde, malononitrile and 4-hydroxycoumarin/dimedone in moderate to excellent yields. the present method was operationally si...

UNLABELLED BACKGROUND The main objective of this work was to obtain a binary system of surface-active components (nonionic soap - alkaline and/or ammonium dodecylbenzenesulfonate) with potential competences in food hygiene, by accessing a scheme of classical reactions (cyanoethylation, total acid hydrolysis and stoichiometric neutralization with inorganic alkaline and/or organic ammonium bas...

A series of arylidine barbituric acid derivatives was synthesized by Knoevenagel condensation reaction of aromatic aldehydes with barbituric acid or thiobarbituric acid using dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid as a Brønsted acid-surfactant catalyst in aqueous media. Regardless of the nature of the substitution (electron-donating and -withdrawing), all the reactions were completed within 15-65 min in w...

4-dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid (dbsa) has been shown to be an efficient, mild, green, stable and chemoselective brønsted acid catalyst for the synthesis of 1, 1-diacetates (acylals) of aldehydes under solvent-free conditions. the mild condition, eco-friendly, excellent yields, short reaction times and using an easily available, inexpensive and reusable catalyst are important features of this met...

Emulsion-enhanced biphasic esterification has proven to be applicable for carboxylic acid recovery from dilute aqueous process streams. The is esterified with 1-octanol in an emulsified regime 4-dodecylbenzenesulfonic (4-DBSA) or Ni(DBSA)2 as catalyst. After phase separation, the laden solvent must regenerated. This study presents a regeneration concept based on reactive distillation transester...
