Single pot multicomponent approaches using different nanomaterials as green catalysts for synthesis of 1,4-dihydropyridine (1,4-DHP), a privileged heterocyclic scaffold with vital biological and therapeutic applications are reviewed.
Recent developments to achieve further physicochemical control in metallic nanomaterials by galvanic replacement are discussed towards applications in catalysis.
A novel protocol for the one-pot, template/seed-free, and completely green synthesis of rose-shaped Au nanostructures with unique three-dimensional hierarchical structures was developed.
Highly active and reusable bimetallic Ag@Au/CNC nanocomposite was successfully obtained via a simple green synthesis for the reduction of nitrophenol and aza-Michael reaction.
