Abstract: We have developed an expedient and highly efficient β-cyclodextrin-SO 3 H catalyzed approach for the eco-friendly synthesis of dihydropyrano[2,3-c]pyrazole derivatives in aqueous medium. The reaction proceeded smoothly with a range of functionalities within 15-30 min to produce the dihydropyrano[2,3-c]pyrazole scaffolds in good to excellent yields. β-cyclodextrin-SO 3 H can be recycled and reused with an insignificant loss of catalytic activity
