Synthesis of Dihydropyridines and Quinoxaline Derivatives Using 1- Methyl-3-(2-(Sulfooxy)Ethyl)-1h-Imidazol-3-Ium Chloride As A New, Reusable and Efficient Brønsted Acidic Ionic Liquid Catalyst

In this work, the efficiency, generality and applicability of new silica supported brønsted acidic ionic liquid (bail) 1-methyl-3-(2- (sulfooxy)ethyl)-1h-imidazol-3-ium chloride as heterogeneous and green catalyst for organic transformations are studied. herein, the following one-pot multi-component reactions in the presence of [msei]cl are investigated: (i) the synthesis of quinoxaline derivatives from phenylendiamine and 1,2-diketones in etoh and under mild conditions (room temperature), (ii) the preparation of 1,4-dihydropyridines from one-pot multi component condensation of 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds (2 equiv.), nh4oac (1.5 equiv.) and aldehydes (1 equiv.) under solvent-free conditions at moderate temperature (90 °c). high yields, relatively short reaction times, efficiency, generality, clean process, simple methodology, low cost, easy work-up, ease of preparation and regeneration of the catalyst and green conditions (in the synthesis of the quinoxaline derivatives) are advantages of the application of [mesi]cl as catalyst in the above organic reactions.
