An up-to-date short review of the chalcone methodologies is presented, which is the most interesting and beneficial for choosing the desired protocol to synthesize suitable derivatives of chalcones. Chalcones are fluorescent, stable compounds which contribute to the synthesis of various pharmacologically important heterocyclic structure-based derivatives. Chalcone has displayed a remarkable curative efficiency to cure s Read More

‘Polysilanes’ is an important class of inorganic polymers having Si-Si σ-conjugation along the backbone. They exhibit extraordinary electronic and photophysical properties and find suitable optoelectronics applications. They are typically synthesized by Wurtz coupling reaction of dichlorodialkylsilane or dichlorodiphenylsilane or dichloroalkylphenylsilane and their combinations under drastic reaction conditions by us Read More

Background: In recent years, photoredox catalysis using eosin Y has gained considerable significance in organic chemistry. It is evolving as a powerful approach in modern organic synthesis for the activation of small molecules. Objective: The use of organic dyes to convert visible light into chemical energy by involving a single-electron transfer with organic substrates has innumerable applications. Method and Results: The p Read More

Background: Multicomponent reactions involve the simultaneous reaction of three or more components which deliver the product that incorporates the elements of all starting materials. A combination of multicomponent reaction and green solvents like water and the use of nonconventional energy sources like microwave or ultrasonication are important features of ideal green synthesis. Therefore, the design of a new multic Read More

Background: In recent years, green organic transformation has become a challenge for a chemist in areas like social sector, health, and environment. Literature survey revealed that a nano magnetite supported heterogeneous catalysis is an emergent field with huge application in chemical synthesis. Objective: In the present article, the aim was to develop a simple and facile method to carry organic reaction under Read More

Background: Dihydropyrano [3, 2-c]chromenes and their derivatives have great attention for scientists. They have different activities such as biological properties, spasmolytic, diuretic, anticoagulant, anti-cancer, and anti-anaphylactic activity. For these vary biological activities, chromene derivatives have made significant for further progress in medicinal and organic synthesis studies. So, in view of the importance of chro Read More

Background: Synthesis of acridinedione derivatives via one-pot multi-component approaches using highly active and reusable Pd/AlO(OH) heterogenous catalyst was studied. This process provided a convenient method to obtain various acridinediones with potential biological activities. The reactions were performed in mild conditions such as low temperature and short reaction time with desirable yields. Methods: Comm Read More
