Homogeneous catalysis, heterogeneous recycling: a new family of branched molecules with hydrocarbon or fluorocarbon chains for the Friedländer synthesis of …
Abstract A new family of branched catalysts with hydrocarbon or fluorocarbon chains was used to catalyze Friedländer reaction between 2-aminoarylketones and α-methylene ketones under solvent-free conditions in good to excellent yields. The catalysts exhibit temperature-dependent solubility and such a thermomorphic character allows them to be recovered by filtration conveniently at room temperature and reused at least five times. To ...
