Title ZrCl4 or NH4VO3 as a versatile catalyst for the capable synthesis of xanthenediones and their corresponding theoretical studies
Type JournalPaper
Keywords ZrCl4 NH4VO3 Xanthenediones Multicomponent reactions Theoretical studies
Abstract The main purpose of this work was proposing a versatile and capable method for the synthesis of diverse xan- thenediones from the three-component condensation reaction of two moles of dimedone and one mole of various aldehydes by zirconium tetrachloride (I) or ammonium metavanadate (II) catalysts in solvent-free conditions at 60 ◦C for I and 80 ◦ C for II catalysts. The products were characterized by comparison of their melting points, IR and NMR spectra with authentic samples. Also, the proposed reaction mechanism for the synthesis of xanthe- nediones was confirmed at M062x/def2-SVP level of theory in the gas phase
