The synthesis of dihydropyridines, valuable molecules with diverse therapeutic properties, using eco-friendly heterogeneous catalysts as a green alternative received significant consideration. By selecting appropriate precursors, these compounds can be readily modified to induce the desired properties in the target product. This review focused on synthesising diverse dihydropyridine derivatives in single-pot reactions using magnetic, silica, and zirconium-based heterogeneous catalytic systems. The monograph describes preparation techniques for various catalyst materials in detail. It covers facile and benign magnetic, silica, zirconium-based, and ionic liquid catalysts, exhibiting significant efficacy and consistently facilitating excellent yields in short reaction times and in a cost-effective way. Most of the designated protocols employ Hantzsch reactions involving substituted aldehydes, active methylene compounds, and ammonium acetate. These reactions presumably follow Knoevenagel condensation followed by Michael addition and intra-molecular cyclisation. The multicomponent one-pot protocols using green catalysts and solvents have admirably increased the product selectivity and yields while minimising the reaction time. These sustainable catalyst materials retain their viability for several cycles reducing the expenditure are eco-friendly.

A one-pot two-component reaction of 3-oxo-2-arylhydrazones with active methylene nitriles under high pressure in a Q-tube safe reactor was reported. Comparison between conventional and Q-tube safe reactor-assisted synthesis of organic compounds was done by comparing total reaction time and percentage yield. The results show that the compound 5-cyano-6-oxo-1,4-diphenyl-1,6-dihydro-pyridazine-3-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (3) was synthesized within 2 h in a yield of 97%. In addition, the pyrazolo[3,4-c]pyridines 5b and 5c were obtained in yields of 93 and 95% within 1 h reaction time, respectively. The obtained results suggest that Q-tube safe reactor-assisted syntheses were led to higher product yields within very short reaction times.

In the pursuit of establishing a sustainable biobased economy, valorization of lignocellulosic biomass is increasing its value as a feedstock. Nevertheless, to achieve the integrated biorefinery paradigm, the selective fractionation of its complex matrix to its single constituents must be complete. This review presents and examines the novel catalytic pathways to form furfuryl alcohol (FuOH) from xylose in a one-pot system. This production concept takes on chemical, thermochemical and biochemical transformations or a combination of them. Still, the bulk of the research is targeted to develop heterogeneous catalytic systems to synthesize FuOH from furfural and xylose. The present review includes an overview of the economic aspects to produce this platform chemical in an industrial manner. In the last section of this review, an outlook and summary of catalytic processes to produce FuOH are highlighted.

A catalytic amount of pTSA has been found to be effective to carry out a one-pot three-component coupling of aromatic aldehydes, enolizable ketones or ketoesters, and acetonitrile in the presence of acetyl chloride to afford β-acetamidoketones in high yields. Short reaction times and inexpensive catalyst are main advantages of this protocol.Key words: β-acetamidoketone, pTSA, multicomponent reaction, diastereoselectivity.

Starting from the environmental issues related to global warming, climate change and reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, this review paper describes how CO2 recycling can represent a challenging strategy suitable to explore new concepts and opportunities for catalytic and industrial development. In this view, the production of dimethyl ether (DME) from catalytic hydrogenation of CO2 appears as a viable technology, able to meet also the ever-increasing need for alternative environmentally-friendly fuels and energy carriers. Basic considerations on thermodynamic aspects controlling DME production from CO2 are presented, then summarizing the main catalytic systems developed in such a field. Special attention is paid on the role assumed during last years by zeolite-based systems, either in the methanol-to-DME dehydration step or in the one-pot CO2-to-DME hydrogenation. On the whole, the productivity of DME results significantly to be dependent on several catalyst features, linked not only to the metal-oxide phase responsible for CO2 activation/hydrogenation, but also to specific properties of the zeolites (i.e., topology, porosity, surface area, acidity, interaction with active metals, distributions of metal particles, …) influencing activity and stability of hybridized bifunctional heterogeneous catalysts.

ABSTRACTChemical reactions of metals and strongly interacting alloys such as Cu-Mn, Ni-Ti, Ni-Hf and Ni-Zr with oxygen and hydrogen play important roles in the preparation, activation, and regeneration of many important heterogeneous catalytic systems involving supported and unsupported metals and alloys. Recent advances in the understanding of metal and alloy oxidation is bringing new insight into the reactive design and activation of bi- and multi-metallic catalysts. By surface studies of oxidation, thermal annealing and reduction of selected alloys and their thin films and reaction layers and products we have been able to delineate the factors which are most important to the oxide formation processes and the oxide reduction processes. Reaction models developed from these results are permitting the design of new catalyst systems and providing long sought understanding to explain specific aspects of well established metallic catalysts.

Aim and Objective: Ceria loaded on solid zirconia was employed as heterogeneous catalyst for the synthesis of pyridine derivatives via a one-vessel, four-component reaction consisting of substituted aldehyde, malononitrile, dimethylacetylenedicarboxylate and dimethylaniline with good to excellent product yields (87 to 95%). The noteworthy advantages of the facile method with ethanol as solvent are excellent yields with short reaction times. Catalyst is reusable with little loss of activity up to six rounds. Materials and Method: All the catalyst materials were synthesized by using simple wet-impregnation method. The powder X-ray diffraction, TEM, SEM and N2 adsorption/desorption analysis techniques were employed for the structural interpretation of CeO2/ZrO2, the identity of target products were established and confirmed by diverse spectral (1H NMR, 13C NMR, 15N NMR, FT-IR and HRMS) techniques. Results: As convincingly demonstrated by the synthetic approaches reported in this review, MCRs have facilitated many new methodologies with significant advantages for efficient and well organized synthesis of varied pyrazole derivatives. The methodology involved variety of options for catalysts that can be chosen using different solvents or solvent-free conditions and/or using alternative energy-efficient options such as microwave irradiation and sonification. This review brings together ample material about synthesis of varied pyrazole derivatives that may have prodigious scope, in drug design and therapeutics. It is anticipated that research efforts in this direction will endure in the search for novel, atom efficient, small molecules with excellent drug-like properties. Conclusion: In this study, we report on a green and efficient one-pot protocol for the synthesis of functionalized 1,4-dihydropyridine-2,3-dicarboxylate derivatives through a four-component reaction between malononitrile, dimethylacetylenedicarboxylate, dimethylaniline and substituted aldehydes using 2.5% CeO2/ZrO2 as a catalyst in EtOH and at room temperature. This methodology has several advantages such as short reaction times (< 30 min), high product yields (87-95%), ease of handling, facile and green work-up. The easy recoverable and reusable catalyst meets the industrial and environmental requirements and is versatile and cost effective.

A new and convenient method for the synthesis of bis(pyrazolyl)methanes by one-pot tandem Knoevenagel–Michael reaction of 3-methyl-1-phenyl-5-pyrazolone with aryl, heteroaryl, or alkyl aldehydes in the presence of 2-hydroxyethylammonium acetate (2-HEAA) as a task-specific ionic liquid is described. This method was also successfully applied for the synthesis of 2-pyrazolyl-1-nitroalkanes by Michael addition of 3-methyl-1-phenyl-5-pyrazolone with β-nitrostyrenes in short reaction times. The present protocol offers several advantages such as using a reusable and cost-effective ionic liquid, an environmentally benign reaction media, being amenable to scale-up and good to high yields of the products.
