Abstract:
Amidoalkyl naphthols have been synthesized in high yields in the presence of 1-hexanesulphonic acid sodium salt as an inexpensive solid catalyst under solvent-free conditions and microwave-irradiation.This catalyst provides clean conversion;greater selectivity and easy workup make this protocol practical and economically attractive.
