The good leaving tendency of the benzotriazole moiety has been exploited for the synthesis of symmetric, unsymmetric, N-acyl, and cyclic ureas in good yields from N-acylbenzotriazoles by treating the latter with various amines in the presence of TMSN3/Et3N in a sealed tube. The salient features of the devised protocol includes the high-yield, mild, metal-free, one-pot reaction conditions, and short reaction time. Furthermore, in many cases, no column chromatography is required for the purification.

In the current study, a green, one-pot, three-component reaction was performed to prepare novel N-substituted 5-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives. The thiadiazoles were obtained from the reaction of a ketene S,S-acetal of Meldrum’s acid or barbituric acid (as key intermediates), hydrazine, and isothiocyanate. The key advantages of this manner include environmentally safe reactions, high yield, appropriate reaction time, simple reaction conditions, and use of a green reaction solvent. The structure of thiadiazoles was determined based on the spectroscopic data.

AbstractRecently magnetic nanocatalyst has attracted considerable attention because of its unique properties, including high performance, easy separation from the reaction mixture, and recyclability. In this study, a novel magnetic bionanocomposite was synthesized with chitosan and tannic acid as a natural material. The synthesized bionanocatalyst was characterized by essential analysis. Fe3O4@chitosan-tannic acid as a heterogeneous nanocatalyst was successfully applied to synthesize pyranopyrazole and its derivatives by a one-pot four-component reaction of malononitrile, ethyl acetoacetate, hydrazine hydrate, and various aromatic aldehyde. At the end of the reaction, the nanocatalyst was separated from the reaction mixture and was reused several times with no significant decrease in its catalytic performance. Simple purification of products, the ability for recovering and reusing the nanocatalyst, eco-friendliness, high yields of pure products, mild reaction conditions, short reaction time, non-toxicity, economically affordable are some of the advantages of using the fabricated nanocatalyst in the synthesis of pyranopyrazole.

Pentafluoropropionic acid (PFPA) efficiently catalyzes the one-pot, three-component reaction of aromatic aldehyde, malononitrile, and dimedone to yield tetrahydrobenzo[b]pyran derivatives in high yields. This method is of great value because of its easy processing, short reaction time, environmentally, and high yields.

Amino-bridged gel polymer P1 was discovered to catalyze alkyne halo-functionalization in excellent yields, regioselectivity, functional group compatibility, and recyclability. We have observed that both aromatic and aliphatic alkynes can be converted to α,α-dihalogenated ketones in the presence of polymer P1 under metal-free conditions at room temperature within a short reaction time.

We have developed a new method for the synthesis of 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones in good to excellent yields via phosphomolybdic acid (PMA)-catalyzed cyclocondensation of 2- aminobenzamides with aldehydes or ketones in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) at room temperature. The present method proves to be efficient in terms of short reaction time, high yield, simple workup and easy purification.

Background: A novel one-pot N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalysed acylation of 2- bromoacetonitrile with aromatic aldehydes is reported. The protocol involves carbonyl umpolung reactivity of aldehydes in which the carbonyl carbon attacks nucleophilically (as d1 nucleophile) on the electrophilic terminal of 2-bromoacetonitrile to afford 3-aryl-3-oxopropanenitrile. The salient features of this procedure are short reaction time, operational simplicity, ambient temperature, no by-product formation and high yields. Materials and Methods: A flame-dried round bottom flask was charged with Imidazolium salts (3a) (0.20 mmol). Aldehyde 1a (1.0 mmol), 2-bromoacetonitrile 2 (1.0 mmol), and THF / t-BuOH 5 mL; 10:1) were added at positive nitrogen pressure followed by the addition of DBU (0.15 mmol) through stirring. The resulting yellow- orange solution was stirred at room temperature for 5-6 h. After completion of the reaction (TLC monitored), the reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure. The product was purified using hexane / EtOAc (10:1) as an eluent to provide analytically pure compound 4a. Physical data of representative compounds and the NMR spectroscopic data are in agreement with the literature value. Results and Discussion: The salient features of this procedure are short reaction time, operational simplicity, ambient temperature, no by-product formation and high yields. Conclusion: To sum up, we have developed a convenient, efficient and one-pot route for 3-oxo-3- phenylpropanenitrile synthesis from NHC promoted direct nucleophilic acylation of aromatic aldehydes using 2- bromoacetonitrile. This method provided a wide range of products and good yields. To best of our knowledge, this is the new report for the synthesis of 3-oxo-3-phenylpropanenitrile through NHC promoted nucleophilic acylation of aromatic aldehyde.
