A convenient, green, and efficient procedure for the synthesis of S-vinyl dithiocarbamates by a simple one-pot three-component condensation of an amine, carbon disulfide, and alkynes is described in the absence of any transition metal catalyst and under solvent-free conditions. This clean and improved method selectively furnishes the corresponding (Z)-S-vinyl dithiocarbamates in good to excellent yields. The reaction is clean with simple product workup and is carried out at 80 C. Graphical Abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.]  

An environmentally benign and efficient process for the preparation of β-hydroxysulfides was developed by a practical and simple reaction of thiols with epoxides in water catalyzed by K2CO3 in high yields and short reaction times  

An efficient and unprecedented green protocol has been developed for the synthesis of N,S-heterocycles from styrenes and alkyl dithiocarbamates with high to excellent yields. The reaction of primary or secondary amines, CS 2, and styrenes was carried out in water in the presence of a catalytic amount of an inorganic base. All products were made by using an N -bromosuccinimide-H 2O combination as a green and inexpensive reagent. © 2020 American Institute of Physics Inc.. All rights reserved  

In this work, a green synthesis method was designed and practiced to develop bioactive and biocompatible carbon-based nanocomposites biomaterials. ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized in assistance of leaf extracts and added to a composite nanostructure composed of the reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT). The resulting green nanocomposite revealed ability to make π-π interactions, hydrogen bonding, and van der Waals interactions with the doxorubicin (DOX). Then, the surface morphology of the synthesized nanocomposite was investigated, and the interrelationship between the surface morphology, relative cell viability, and drug uptake and release behavior were... 

Selective oxidations of alkenes were investigated using molecular oxygen in aqueous solution under mild conditions. Colloidal gold nanoparticles are particularly versatile catalysts for oxidation reaction with exceptionally high efficiency and significant selectivity. Gold nanorods (Au NRs) exhibited a slightly enhanced activity compare to gold nanospheres  

The Ugi reaction goes fast with high yields in a recyclable and biodegradable low-melting mixture of choline chloride and urea (DES) as a novel and efficient reaction medium. The DES is applicable to a wide range of aldehydes, amines, isocyanides, and acids in good to excellent isolated yields (60-92%) and short reaction times (2-5 h) and can be reused four times without any loss of activity  

The current work deals with the catalytic application of bis(1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium) tungstate ([BMIm]2WO4) for green synthesize of glutaric acid (GA) through oxidative cleavage of cyclopentene. In this method, 30% hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was used as oxidant with water as the sole by-product of the reaction. Compared to the current synthetic procedures, this protocol is significantly improved in the environmental point of view. Moreover, the effect of the various parameters was investigated on the reaction efficiency. It was found that high yield of GA could obtain without using special methodologies or precautions. The catalytic system is reusable for several times  

In this research, three fibers including cellulose acetate (CA), CA–phenyltriethoxysilane (PTES) prepared via sol–gel electrospinning and sol–gel–based CA fibers immersed in PTES solution (dipped–CA–PTES) were prepared. The composition and morphology of the prepared fibers were evaluated by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and field emission scanning electron microscopy. The prepared fibers were implemented in a home–made needle trap device, followed by thermal desorption of the selected chlorobenzenes (CBs) to a gas chromatography–flame ionization detector. Finally, parameters affecting the extraction methodology such as the amount of sorbent, extraction time and temperature, desorption... 

A typical Cobalt-Copper ferrite nanoparticles (CoCuFe2O4) was used as a catalyst for one-pot [3+2] cycloaddition of alkyl azides with alkynes at room temperature in green media. These nanoparticles were synthesized by using co-precipitation method and were fully characterized by physiochemical technique. By this catalyst system, various types of alkyl halides were coupled with alkynes efficiently to furnish 1,2,3 triazoles in excellent yields within short reaction time. The requirement on energy and time for the Click reaction extremely minimized in this method compared to previously reported reactions as an inevitable trend in development of green chemistry. Using green solvent, inexpensive... 

4H-chromenes play a significant role in natural and pharmacological products. Despite continuous advances in the synthesis methodology of these compounds, there is still a lack of a green and efficient method. In this study, we have designed cysteic acid chemically attached to magnetic graphene oxide (MNPs·GO-CysA) as an efficient and reusable solid acid catalyst to synthesize 4H-chromene skeletons via a one-pot three components reaction of an enolizable compound, malononitrile, an aldehyde or isatin, and a mixture of water–ethanol as a green solvent. This new heterogeneous catalyst provides desired products with a good to excellent yield, short time, and mild condition. This procedure... 

The catalytic activity of potassium salts of phthalimide (PPI) and succinimide (PSI), as organonucleophilic catalysts, has been investigated for the cyclotrimerization of isocyanates under solvent-free conditions. PPI showed better catalytic activity in comparison with PSI. Diverse and challenging isocyanates afforded the respective symmetrical isocyanurates in good to quantitative yields in an atom economic reaction without any phase transfer catalyst. © 2005 Bentham Science Publishers Ltd  

An ecofriendly one-pot multicomponent reaction of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds, aldehydes, and malononitrile was carried out in a different deep eutectic solvent (DES) based on choline chloride, to synthesize highly functionalized benzopyran and pyran derivatives under catalyst-free conditions. The results showed that urea:choline chloride based DES is the best solvent and is successfully applicable to a wide range of aldehydes, active methylene compounds with high yields (75-95%) and short reaction times (1-4 h)  

A simple, green and high-yielding procedure for the synthesis of 4-substituted-2-(alkylsulfanyl)thiazoles from the reaction of dithiocarbamates and α-halocarbonyl containing compounds in water is described. Also, a one-pot, two-step procedure for the synthesis of 2-(alkylsulfanyl)thiazoles from acetophenone and dithiocarbamates was developed. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved
