A new four‐component synthesis of spiro[4H‐indeno[1,2‐b]pyridine‐4,3′‐[3H]indoles] and spiro[acenaphthylene‐1(2H),4′‐[4H‐indeno[1,2‐b]pyridines] by the reaction of indane‐1,3‐dione, 1,3‐dicarbonyl compounds, isatins (=1H‐indole‐2,3‐diones) or acenaphthylene‐1,2‐dione, and AcONH₄ in refluxing toluene in the presence of a catalytic amount of pyridine is reported.     

Organic Reaction in Water: A Highly Efficient and Environmentally Friendly Synthesis of Spiro Compounds Catalyzed by L‐Proline

We have developed a clean, simple and efficient method for the synthesis of spiro compounds by three‐component reaction of isatins (=1H‐indole‐2,3‐diones) or acenaphthylene‐1,2‐dione, 1,3‐diphenyl‐1H‐pyrazoles‐5‐amines, and tetronic acid (=furan‐2,4‐(3H,5H)‐dione or 2‐hydroxy‐1,4‐naphthoquinone in the presence of a catalytic amount of L ‐proline in aqueous media. The advantages of this procedure are mild reaction conditions, high yields of products, operational simplicity, and easy workup procedures employed.     

An efficient and green synthesis of phthalide-fused pyrazole and pyrimidine derivatives

An efficient and green method for the synthesis of phthalide [isobenzofuran-1(3H)-one] fused pyrazoles via the catalyst-free condensation reaction of 2-formylbenzoic acid, hydrazine hydrate, and acetylenic esters in water is reported. Reaction of 2-formylbenzoic acid with 6-amino-uracils or cyclic 1,3-diketones resulted in the formation of phthalide-fused pyrimidine or cyclic 1,3-diketone derivatives.     

Clean synthesis and antibacterial activities of spiro[pyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline-5,5'-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine]-pentaones

A simple, clean and efficient method for the synthesis of spiro[pyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline-5,5'-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine]-pentaone derivatives by condensation reaction of 6-amino-uracils and isatins in aqueous media is reported. These products were evaluated in vitro for their antibacterial activities.     

A three‐component,one‐pot synthesis of oxazinoquinolin‐3‐one derivatives

Oxazino[5,6‐f]quinolin‐3‐one derivatives have been synthesized in a one‐pot, and efficient process by condensation of 6‐quinolinol, aromatic aldehydes and urea under microwave‐assisted and thermal solvent‐free conditions.     

Alum (KAl(SO4)2·12H2O) Catalyzed Multicomponent Transformation: Simple,Efficient, and Green Route to Synthesis of Functionalized Spiro[chromeno[2,3‐d]pyrimidine‐5,3′‐indoline]‐tetraones in Ionic Liquid Media

The combination of isatin, barbituric acid, and cyclohexane‐1,3‐dione derivatives in the presence of alum (KAl(SO₄)₂·12H₂O) as a catalyst for 15 min was found to be a suitable and efficient method for the synthesis of spiro[chromeno[2,3‐d]pyrimidine‐5,3′‐indoline]‐tetraones.
