An efficient one pot three-component nanocatalyzed synthesis of spiroheterocycles using TiO2 nanoparticles as a heterogeneous catalyst
An efficient, environmentally benign isocyanide-based domino protocol is presented for synthesizing spiroheterocycles with 2-amino benzothiazole/1,3,4-thiadiazole, cyclohexyl/tert-butyl isocyanides and isatines/cyclic carbonyls, catalyzed by recyclable nanocrystalline TiO2.
