Catalyst-free Mannich-type reactions in water: Expedient synthesis of naphthol-substituted isoindolinones

Catalyst-free synthesis of tetrahydrodipyrazolopyridines via an one-pot tandem and green pseudo-six-component reaction in water

Background

A new, green and environmentally friendly protocol has been developed for the synthesis of tetrahydrodipyrazolopyridine derivatives. The structures of these products were determined in terms of melting point, FTIR, NMR and Mass spectroscopy.

Results

The tetrahydrodipyrazolopyridine derivatives were synthesized in water through a catalyst-free pseudo-six-component reaction of hydrazine hydrate, ethyl acetoacetate, ammonium acetate and aldehyde at room temperature.

Conclusions

This novel procedure has some advantages such as aqueous media, high yield and simple work-up.

Chiral Graphene Hybrid Materials: Structures, Properties, and Chiral Applications

Chirality has become an important research subject. The research areas associated with chirality are under substantial development. Meanwhile, graphene is a rapidly growing star material and has hard-wired into diverse disciplines. Rational combination of graphene and chirality undoubtedly creates unprecedented functional materials and may also lead to great findings. This hypothesis has been clearly justified by the sizable number of studies. Unfortunately, there has not been any previous review paper summarizing the scattered studies and advancements on this topic so far. This overview paper attempts to review the progress made in chiral materials developed from graphene and their derivatives, with the hope of providing a systemic knowledge about the construction of chiral graphenes and chiral applications thereof. Recently emerging directions, existing challenges, and future perspectives are also presented. It is hoped this paper will arouse more interest and promote further faster progress in these significant research areas.
