A Convenient Synthesis of Pyridophenanthroline Derivatives under Catalyst Free Conditions

A three‐component reaction between an aromatic aldehyde, quinolin‐6‐amine or quinolin‐5‐amine, and tert‐butyl 2,4‐dioxopiperidine‐1‐carboxylate in reflux EtOH gave pyrido phenanthroline derivatives in high yields under catalyst free conditions. The rare C‐H…F hydrogen bond is found in the crystal structure of 6h .     

Clean and Efficient Synthesis of Pyrazole Derivatives in Aqueous Media

A series of 5‐aryl‐1H‐pyrazole derivatives were synthesized via the reaction of 3‐(dimethylamino)‐1‐arylprop‐2‐en‐1‐one with hydrazine in aqueous media without using any catalyst. This method has the advantages of easier work‐up, mild reaction condition, high yields, and an environmentally benign procedure.
