Heteropoly acid supported on activated natural clay-catalyzed synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrimidinones/thiones through Biginelli reaction under solvent-free conditions

<p>Dihydropyrimidinones/thiones (DHPM’s) have been prepared by one-pot condensation of methyl acetoacetate, aldehydes, urea/thiourea in the presence of heteropoly-11-tungsto-1-vanadophosphoric acid, H₄[PVW₁₁O₄₀] · 32H₂O, (HPV) supported on activated natural clay (HPVAC) under solvent-free reaction condition have been proposed. The DHPM derivatives were identified through elemental analysis and melting point measurements and characterized by FT-IR, ¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR spectroscopic methods.</p

One-pot three-component synthesis of bis(indolyl)methanes under solvent-free condition using heteropoly-11-tungsto-1-vanadophosphoric acid supported on natural clay as catalyst

<p>One-pot three-component condensation reaction of two moles of indole and one mole of aromatic aldehyde for the synthesis of bis(indolyl)methanes in the presence of new catalytic material, heteropoly-11-tungsto-1-vanadophosphoric acid, H₄[PV^VW₁₁O₄₀] (HPV) supported on activated natural clay under solvent-free reaction condition has been proposed. The catalysts were prepared by incipient wetness impregnation method. The physicochemical characterizations of the HPV (20%) supported on natural clay (HPVAC-20) have also been discussed. Solvent-free heterogeneous reaction condition, simple workup procedure, short reaction time, high yield of products, and reusability of the catalyst are the advantages of the protocol.</p
