The reusability of the catalyst, low catalyst loading, short reaction times, excellent yields, simple work‐up, and use of sonochemical procedure as a mild process and an alternative energy source are some of the advantages of this method. Furthermore, the novel heterogeneous nanocomposite was fully characterized using various techniques.     

Ionic liquid catalyzed one-pot multi-component synthesis of fused pyridine derivatives: A strategy for green and sustainable chemistry

The synthesis of a combinatorial library of heterocycle-fused pyridine derivatives has been achieved successfully via a one-pot four-component reaction of aromatic/aliphatic aldehyde, malononitrile, thiazolidine-2,4-dione and ammonium acetate in the presence of piperidinium acetate as the catalyst. It involved the Knoevenagel condensation of the aldehyde and malononitrile to produce arylidene malononitrile as an intermediate, which was further intramolecular cyclization through Michael type addition ketone to the electrophilic double bond of the arylidene to produce fused pyridines in high yields. Environmental friendliness, low cost, Operational simplicity, extensive reusability and applicability, and easy recovery of the catalyst using simple evaporation are the critical features of this methodology.

Piperidone synthesis using amino acid: A promising scope for green chemistry

Piperidone is a family of organic chemicals characterized by a 6-carbon ring substituted with nitrogen and a double-bonded oxygen atom. Piperidones are named by the location of the nitrogen or amine group on the ring. It differs from piperidine by the presence of oxygen molecule (from ketone). It is used in pharmaceutical companies and chemical manufacturers as intermediates having anti microbial activity. It is usually synthesized using ammonia both in laboratory and industry. In present study, amino acid namely aspartic acid is used instead of ammonia. The amino acid incorporated piperidones is purified and analyzed using NMR spectroscopy.

A mild high yielding synthesis of oxazole-4-carboxylate derivatives

Several 2,5-disubstituted oxazole-4-carboxylates were prepared in high yields from the methyl esters of N-acyl-β-halodehydroaminobutyric acid derivatives by treatment with a 2% solution of DBU in acetonitrile. The scope of this reaction was investigated and it was found that dehydrodipeptides having a β-bromodehydroaminobutyric acid residue gave the corresponding oxazoles in good yields. The photophysical properties of some of the oxazoles prepared were studied in four solvents of different polarity. All compounds have reasonable high fluorescence quantum yields and a moderate solvent sensitivity, which makes them good candidates to be used as fluorescent probes. One of the fluorescent oxazoles prepared was inserted after cleavage of the methyl ester into two model peptides using a conventional solution phase strategy. The photophysical properties of the labelled peptides were studied in ethanol and water and compared with those of the oxazole. The results obtained showed that the oxazole maintains a good fluorescence level and the same solvent sensitivity when linked to a peptide chain.
