The use of natural resources as a chemical feedstock for the synthesis of added-value products is gaining interest; as such we report an environmentally friendly method for the synthesis of para-menthane-3,8-diol from natural citronellal oil in 96% yield, under solvent free aqueous conditions. The acylation of para-menthane-3,8-diol with various acid anhydrides over polymer-supported scandium triflate (PS-Sc(OTf)3) catalyst was subsequently developed, where both hydroxy groups of para-menthane-3,8-diol could be simultaneous acylated under mild reaction conditions to form the corresponding diesters in good yields. The advantages of this method include a simple procedure from natural resources, using solvent-free reaction conditions.

A novel one-pot synthesis of 1,2-dihydro-1-arylnaphtho[1,2-e][1,3]oxazine-3-ones by condensation of a variety of aldehydes withβ-naphthol and urea or thiourea in the presence of wet cyanuric chloride under solvent-free condition has been described. High yields, simple procedure, easy workup, short reaction times, and avoiding the use of organic solvent are the advantages of this green methodology.

An enantioselective 1,4-conjugate addition of nitromethane to β-silyl α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds catalyzed by bifunctional squaramide catalysts has been developed. This methodology offers both enantiomers of β-silyl nitroalkanes in good to excellent yields (up to 92%) and enantioselectivities (up to 97.5% ee) under solvent-free conditions at room temperature. Control experiments reveal that the presence of a β-silyl group in the enones is crucial for high reactivity under the optimized reaction conditions.

AbstractA one-pot three-component Biginelli-like reaction of enaminones, aldehydes with urea/thiourea in the presence of 2-pyrrolidonium bisulphate as an acidic ionic liquid catalyst for the preparation of 6-unsubstituted dihydropyrimidinones is described. The excellent yield, short reaction time, simple procedure and avoidance of the use of organic solvents are some advantages of this method.

A convenient two-step synthesis of diazocine starting from 2-nitrotoluene is described. The first step, the oxidative dimerization of 2-nitrotoluene, is improved to 95% yield. The second step, the reductive azo cyclization, is performed as a solvent-free reaction with lead powder in a ball mill (51% yield). As a reference, the previously described azo cyclization with Zn/Ba(OH)2 is investigated in detail. The results explain why in previous experiments the yields are low and extremely dependent on the reaction conditions. In view of potential applications in photopharmacology, we checked the stability under reducing conditions. Diazocine does not react with glutathione, indicating intracellular stability.

A one-pot and efficient approach to the synthesis of dialkyl 2-[1-[(alkoxycarbonyl)anilino]-2(1H)- (isoquinolin-2-yl) (or -quinolin-1-yl or -pyridin-1-yl)]-2-butenedioates is described. This method involves a three-component reaction between isoquinoline, quinoline or pyridine, dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates and N-phenylcarbamates under solvent-free conditions, without using any catalyst and at room temperature. The mild reaction conditions and good yields of the products exhibit the synthetic advantage of this method.
