Urea hydrogen peroxide-initiated synthesis of pyranopyrazoles through oxidative coupling under base- and metal-free conditions by physical grinding method

Montmorillonite K-10 catalyzed synthesis of Hantzsch dihydropyridine derivatives from methyl arenes via in situ generated ammonia under microwave irradiation in neat conditions

An expeditious, efficient, and environmentally friendly approach has been established for the synthesis of diverse Hantzsch 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives utilizing montmorillonite K-10 as a catalyst in solvent-free conditions. The procedure entails the reaction of methyl arynes as a sustainable surrogate of aryl aldehydes, active methylene compounds, and urea hydrogen peroxide (UHP) as an oxidising agent as well as a source of ammonia under microwave irradiation, facilitated by montmorillonite K-10.

Urea Hydrogen Peroxide and Ethyl Lactate, an Eco-Friendly Combo System in the Direct C(sp2)-H Bond Selenylation of Imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole and Related Structures

Herein, we describe a urea hydrogen peroxide-mediated sustainable protocol for the synthesis of selenylated imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole by using half molar equivalent diorganyl diselenides in ethyl lactate as a greener solvent. The reaction features high yields, easy performance on gram scale, metal-free conditions, as well as applicability to imidazopyridine and imidazopyrimidine.
