AbstractA variety ofN-acyl-N-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-nitrobenzenesulfonamides (1a–e) were synthesized in one pot from 4-chloroaniline under solvent-free conditions and have been developed as chemoselective N-acylation reagents. Selective protection of primary amines in the presence of secondary amines, acylation of aliphatic amines in the presence of aryl amines, and monofunctionalization of primary-secondary diamines as well as selective N-acylation of amino alcohols using these reagents are described. All of the acylation reactions were carried out in water as a green solvent. High stability and easy preparation of these acylating reagents are other advantages of this method.

A convenient and efficient methodology for the synthesis of densely substituted pyrrole-fused isocoumarins, which employs solid-supported silica sulfuric acid (SSA) as catalyst, has been developed. When the mixture of ninhydrin adducts of acetylacetone/ethyl acetoacetate and primary amines was heated on the solid surface of SSA under solvent-free conditions, the pyrrole-fused isocoumarins were formed in good yields. This synthetic method has several advantages such as the employment of solvent-free reaction conditions without the use of any toxic reagents and metal catalysts, the ease of product isolation, the use of a recyclable catalyst, the low cost, the easy availability of the starting materials, and the excellent yields of products.

Amide bonds are among the most interesting and abundant molecules of life and products of the chemical pharmaceutical industry. In this work, we describe a method of the direct synthesis of amides from carboxylic acids and amines under solvent-free conditions using minute quantities of ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) as a catalyst. The reactions are carried out in an open microwave reactor and allow the corresponding amides to be obtained in a fast and effective manner when compared to other procedures of the direct synthesis of amides from acids and amines reported so far in the literature. The amide product isolation procedure is simple, environmentally friendly, and is performed with no need for chromatographic purification of secondary amides due to high yields. In this report, primary amines were used in most examples. However, the developed procedure seems to be applicable for secondary amines as well. The methodology produces a limited amount of wastes, and a catalyst can be easily separated. This highly efficient, robust, rapid, solvent-free, and additional reagent-free method provides a major advancement in the development of an ideal green protocol for amide bond formation.

Background: In this study, we developed a convenient methodology for the synthesis of coumarin linked to pyrazolines and pyrano [2,3-h] coumarins linked to 3-(1,5-diphenyl-4,5- dihydro-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-chromen-2-one derivatives using Chlorosulfonic acid supported Piperidine-4-carboxylic acid (PPCA) functionalized Fe3O4 nanoparticles (Fe3O4-PPCA) catalyst. Materials and Methods:: Fe3O4-PPCA was investigated as an efficient and magnetically recoverable Nanocatalyst for the one-pot synthesis of substituted coumarins from the reaction of coumarin with a variety of aromatic aldehydes in high to excellent yield at room temperature under solvent-free conditions. The magnetic nanocatalyst can be easily recovered by applying an external magnet device and reused for at least 10 reaction runs without considerable loss of reactivity. Results and Conclusion: The advantages of this protocol are the use of commercially available materials, simple and an inexpensive procedure, easy separation, and an eco-friendly procedure, and it shows good reaction times, good to high yields, inexpensive and practicability procedure, and high efficiency.

Objective: A facile and efficient method for synthesis of 3, 4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones via Biginelli reaction catalyzed by a novel dicationic Brönsted acidic ionic liquid, [(EtNH2)2SO][HSO4]2, has been successfully developed. Material and Method:: 3, 4-Dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones were synthesized through one-pot condensation of aromatic aldehydes, ethyl acetoacetate, and urea under solvent-free conditions using [(EtNH2)2SO][HSO4]2 as a novel catalyst. The progress of the reaction was monitored by thin-layer chromatography (ethyl acetate / n-hexane = 1 / 5). The products have been characterized by IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and also by their melting points. Results: In this research, a library of dihydropyrimidinone derivatives was synthesized via Biginelli reaction under solvent-free conditions at 120oC using [(EtNH2)2SO][HSO4]2 as a catalyst. Various aromatic aldehydes, as well as heteroaromatic aldehydes, were employed, affording good to high yields of the corresponding products and illustrating the substrate generality of the present method. In addition, the prepared dicationic Brönsted acidic ionic liquid can be easily recovered and reused. Conclusion: 1, 1’-Sulfinyldiethylammonium bis (hydrogen sulfate), as a novel dicationic ionic liquid, can act as a highly efficient catalyst for the synthesis of 3, 4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones under solvent-free conditions.

The elimination of volatile organic solvents in organic synthesis is the most important goal in “Green” chemistry. We report a simple, efficient and facile method for the addition of progargyl bromide to carbonyl compounds using Mg metal as a mediator under solvent-free conditions which could regioselectively generate homopropargyl alcohols efficiently in good to excellent yields. The procedure has advantages such as short reaction time, operationally simple, excellent product yields, high regioselectivity and organic solvent-free.
