Formation of benzoxanthenones and benzochromenones via cerium-impregnated-MCM-41 catalyzed, solvent-free, three-component reaction and their biological evaluation as anti-microbial agents
We report here, three-component condensation reaction of naphthols, aldehydes and 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds catalyzed by Ce-MCM-41 under solvent-free conditions. Several advantages can be perceived using this eco-friendly protocol such as, a green and cost-effective procedure with excellent yield, shorter reaction time, simpler work-up, recovery and reusability of solid acid heterogeneous catalyst and tolerance towards a wide range of functional groups. We also report here the anti-microbial activities of the new compounds. Particularly, it was found that the new compounds have shown promising effect on Pseudo monal infections.

The first example of glucose-containing Brønsted acid synthesis and catalysis: efficient synthesis of tetrahydrobenzo[α]xanthens and tetrahydrobenzo[α]acridines in water
Glucose sulfonic acid (GSA) was synthesized for the first time and used as an efficient catalyst for the preparation of tetrahydrobenzo[alpha]xanthens and tetrahydrobenzo[alpha]acridines via the reaction of aromatic aldehydes, 2-naphthol (or beta-naphthylamine), and dimedone in water. Up to four new bonds and one new ring were formed in one-pot with water as the only by-product in these two reactions. The work opens up a new and efficient synthesis and application of sugar-containing Bronsted acid. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

A simple and efficient procedure for the synthesis of 12-aryl- or 12-alkyl-8,9,10,12-tetrahydrobenzo[a]xanthen-11-one derivatives has been developed via one-pot three-component reaction of 2-naphthol, aldehydes, and dimedone in the presence of ammonium oxalate as a mild and inexpensive catalyst under solvent-free conditions. The present method is operationally simple and offers several advantages such as high yields, short reaction time, economic availability of the catalyst, and simple workup.
