Poly(4-vinylpyridine)-supported sulfuric acid: an efficient solid acid catalyst for the synthesis of coumarin derivatives under solvent-free conditions
Synthesis of imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidines has been accomplished for the first time under solvent-free conditions using molybdate sulfuric acid (MSA) as a heterogeneous catalyst. The present protocol is operationally simple, green and offers several advantages over the existing methods.
