Abstract Calcium hydroxide was found to be an efficient mild base for the one-pot synthesis of curcumin and its analogues obtained by condensation of one equivalent of acetyl acetone with two equivalents of corresponding aromatic aldehyde. The present protocol offers various advantages such as high yields, inexpensive easily available mild base, easy workup and eco-friendly method.

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.

AbstractThe reaction of benzil, an aromatic aldehyde, and ammonium acetate in ethanol at reflux in the presence of tributylhexadecylphosphonium bromide as catalyst affords a 2,4,5-trisubstituted imidazole. The present methodology offers several advantages over the literature methods, including excellent yields, shorter reaction times, environmentally benign milder reaction conditions, cost-effectiveness of catalyst, easy workup, and purification of products by nonchromatographic methods.

A green and highly efficient method has been developed for the one-pot synthesis of tetrahydrobenzo[b]pyrans via a three-component condensation of aldehydes, 1,3-cyclic diketones, and malononitrile under MW irradiation without using any catalyst and solvent. This transformation presumably occurs by a sequential Knoevenagel condensation, Michael addition, and intramolecular cyclization. Operational simplicity, solvent and catalyst-free conditions, the compatibility with various functional groups, nonchromatographic purification technique, and high yields are the notable advantages of this procedure.

In the effort to improve the antimicrobial activity of iminosugars, we report the synthesis of lipophilic iminosugars 10a–b and 11a–b based on the one-pot conjugation of both enantiomeric forms of N-butyldeoxynojirimycin (NBDNJ) and N-nonyloxypentyldeoxynojirimycin (NPDNJ) with cholesterol and a succinic acid model linker. The conjugation reaction was tuned using the established PS-TPP/I2/ImH activating system, which provided the desired compounds in high yields (94–96%) by a one-pot procedure. The substantial increase in the lipophilicity of 10a–b and 11a–b is supposed to improve internalization within the bacterial cell, thereby potentially leading to enhanced antimicrobial properties. However, assays are currently hampered by solubility problems; therefore, alternative administration strategies will need to be devised.

AbstractNatural scolecite has been found as an effective catalyst for the one-pot synthesis of 2,4,5-triarylimidazole derivatives via a three component reaction using benzil or benzoin, aldehydes and ammonium acetate. This method provides several advantages such as being environmentally benign, reusable, possessing high yields with increased variations of the substituents in the product and preparative simplicity.

Two efficient regioselective approaches for the one-pot synthesis of 3-arylpyridazino[4,3-c]quinolin-5(6H)-one derivatives are reported, by the three-component reaction of arylglyoxal monohydrates, quinoline-2,4-diol, and hydrazinium dihydrochloride or hydrazine hydrate in ethanol and pyridine. In ethanol, the reactions were catalyzed by 1,4-diazobicyclo[2,2,2]octane. The features of both procedures are high regioselectivity, mild reaction conditions, good to high yields, and operational simplicity.

AbstractAn efficient palladium-catalyzed tandem reaction for the one-pot synthesis of 9H-carbazoles under microwave irradiation is developed. This approach involves a sequential Buchwald–Hartwig amination and a direct arylation from affordable and inexpensive anilines and 1,2-dihaloarenes. For the development of this purpose, a novel and magnetically recoverable palladium nanocatalyst supported on a green biochar under ligand-free conditions is used. Compared to other existing palladium-based protocols, the present synthetic methodology shows a drastic reduction in reaction times and excellent compatibility with different functional groups allowing to obtain a small library of 9H-carbazoles in high yields and with good regioselectivity. This procedure represents the first example in the direct synthesis of carbazoles using a heterogeneous palladium nanocatalyst from commercial precursors. To examine the application of this protocol, a direct and scalable synthesis of the bioactive carbazole alkaloid clausenalene from commercially available starting materials is described.

N-Bromosuccinimide was found to efficiently catalyze the synthesis of highly functionalized, tetra-substituted furan derivatives in the one-pot reactions of but-2-ene-1,4-diones and acetoacetate esters in the presence of i-PrOH as solvent under mild and neutral conditions at 80-90?C for 3-7 h in high yields (87-94%).
