ABSTRACT
An efficient and green strategy for the regioselective synthesis of highly functionalized pyranopyrazole via one-pot condensation of 3-methyl-1-phenyl-5-pyrazolone or EAA and hydrazine hydrate, substituted aromatic aldehydes with NMSM [(E)-N-Methyl-1-(methylthio)-2-nitro-ethenamine] in the existence of IL [(EMIM)Ac] as catalyst with solvent-free condition (SFC) is described. This domino protocol produces biologically substantial heterocycles through Knoevenagel condensation proceeded by Michael addition and O-cyclization with an eradication of methanethiol group, which create the one stereo-center and creation of "C-C, C-N, C-O, C=C, C=N, bonds." The final product is produced by exceptionally easy filtering after the reaction mass was triturated with ethanol. The strategy's noteworthy features include the use of biodegradable IL catalyst, excellent to exceptional yield with rapid reaction times, applicability to a wide range of substrate, clear reaction profile, and straightforward workup process.
