Cyanuric chloride is an inexpensive, efficient, and mild catalyst for the Michael addition of indoles to nitroolefins at 70°C under solvent-free conditions. The simple experimental procedure, solvent-free reaction conditions, utilization of an inexpensive and readily available catalyst, short period of conversion, and excellent yields are the advantages of the present method.

AbstractSilicon-based thiourea (SiliaBond® Thiourea) (Si-THU), a heterogeneous catalyst, has been applied to the highly selective C-S bond formation via Michael addition of thiols to α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds under solvent-free conditions at 55–60°C. The thio-Michael addition products were obtained in an excellent yield under optimised conditions. This methodology involving a metal-free as well as a metal scavenger catalyst has been found to be an alternative method for the thio-Michael addition reaction.

A convenient and efficient methodology for the synthesis of densely substituted pyrrole-fused isocoumarins, which employs solid-supported silica sulfuric acid (SSA) as catalyst, has been developed. When the mixture of ninhydrin adducts of acetylacetone/ethyl acetoacetate and primary amines was heated on the solid surface of SSA under solvent-free conditions, the pyrrole-fused isocoumarins were formed in good yields. This synthetic method has several advantages such as the employment of solvent-free reaction conditions without the use of any toxic reagents and metal catalysts, the ease of product isolation, the use of a recyclable catalyst, the low cost, the easy availability of the starting materials, and the excellent yields of products.

AbstractThis article describes a study on the Michael addition reaction of cyclohexanone to nitroolefins catalyzed by the chiral secondary amine (1S,4S)-2-tosyl- 2,5-diazabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane. Reactions were carried out under solvent-free conditions to make them more environmentally friendly. Initially, the observed diastereoand enantioselectivities were moderate to good, but were significantly improved by lowering the reaction temperature. Furthermore, a variety of chiral acids were also tested as co-catalysts in both of their enantiomeric forms, which revealed that (R)-mandelic acid affords excellent results in terms of yield and stereoselectivity. Monitoring the reaction by MS-TOF allowed for the detection of key reaction intermediates, and a reasonable reaction mechanism in which both catalysts are involved is proposed.

A catalytic amount (2 mol %) of phosphotungstic acid (PTA) is sufficient to synthesize homoallylic alcohol in excellent yields from aldehyde with allyltributylstannane upon grinding under solvent-free reaction conditions. Easy handling, very short reaction time, solvent-free reaction conditions, and aqueous workup free isolation protocol may make our method very useful for synthetic chemists.

A simple and efficient synthesis of 5-arylidene-2,4-thiazolidinediones by the Knoevenagel condensation of aromatic aldehydes with 2,4-thiazolidinedione catalyzed by ethylenediamine diacetate under solvent-free conditions is described. The major advantages of this method are simple experimental and work-up procedures, solvent-free reaction conditions, small amount of catalyst, short reaction time, high yields, and utilization of an inexpensive and reusable catalyst.

An efficient procedure for the synthesis of carboacyclic nucleosides via microwave-assisted Michael addition of pyrimidine and purine nucleobases to α,β-unsaturated esters in the presence of catalytic amounts of zinc oxide (ZnO) and tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) is described. The reactions proceed rapidly in good to excellent yields.Key words: ZnO–TBAB, green chemistry, Michael addition, nucleobase, solvent-free, microwave.

The catalytic activity of highly thermal stable, hydrophobic, and complete heterogeneous propylsulfonic acid functionalized nanostructured SBA-15 for excellent acetylation of alcohols and phenols with acetic anhydride at ambient temperature in solvent-free conditions was examined under environmentally benign reaction conditions. The salient features of this protocol are the absence of solvent, a green experimental procedure, and simple reusability of the catalyst (at least five reaction cycles).
