RESUMO
An efficient catalytic system consisting of KI and K2S2O8 for a one-pot pseudo three-component cascade reaction in the preparation of a diverse array of 1,3,4-selenadiazole derivatives from easily accessible precursors aldehydes, hydrazine and elemental selenium is demonstrated in this paper. Here, KI is used as the surrogate of iodine and K2S2O8 as the oxidant. The key advantages of this protocol include an easy reaction set up, operational simplicity, high functional group tolerance and utilisation of low toxicity chemicals. Further, a radical quenching reaction was also performed to confirm the mechanistic pathway.
RESUMO
A green, novel and eco-efficient synthetic route towards the synthesis of highly substituted bio-active pyrrolidine-2-one derivatives was demonstrated using ß-cyclodextrin, a water-soluble supramolecular solid as a green and eco-benign catalyst at room temperature under water-ethanol solvent medium. The exploration of the green catalyst ß-cyclodextrin for the metal-free one-pot three-component synthesis of a wide range of highly functionalized bio-active heterocyclic pyrrolidine-2-one moieties from easily available aldehydes and amines explains the superiority and uniqueness of this protocol.
RESUMO
ß-Cyclodextrin, a green and widespread supramolecular catalyst, has been explored as a highly proficient promoter for the metal-free one-pot multi-component synthesis of a vast range of highly functionalized bioactive heterocyclic moiety, 2-amino-4,6-diphenylnicotinonitriles and 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-one, from easily available precursor aldehydes. The main endeavor of these protocols is to explore this organic supramolecule in one-pot multi-component synthesis. Absence of metal catalyst or toxic acid and harsh reaction conditions, excellent functional group tolerance, inexpensive, greener and environmentally safe protocol are the key advantages of this work.
