A green and scalable one-pot hydrothermal synthesis generates polyimide/silica hybrid materials, which can be processed by green, solvent-free sintering.
An AICl3–ZnCl2 mixture supported on silica gel is found to be an efficient medium for the Fries rearrangement of acyloxybenzene or naphthalene derivatives in solvent-free conditions under microwave irradiation.
A rapid and efficient solvent-free one-pot synthesis of novel alkyl amino aryl furan tricarbonitrile derivatives is described under catalyst-free conditions.
