A heterogeneous strong basic Mg/La mixed oxide catalyst for efficient synthesis of polyfunctionalized pyrans
摘要:
An efficient synthesis of polyfunctionalized 4H-pyrans is carried out in one pot through condensation of an aldehyde, malononitrile, and an active methylenic diketo compound using a heterogeneous strong basic Mg/La mixed oxide catalyst. The protocol offers advantages in terms of higher yields, short reaction times, and mild reaction conditions, with reusability of the catalyst. (c) 2008 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
