β-Cyclodextrin, a robust organocatalyst has been explored for the straightforward and facile synthesis of tetrazolo[1,2a]pyrimidine and [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine derivatives through one-pot three-component tandem annulations reaction under solvent-free condition using aldehyde, active methylene compound and 5-aminotetrazole or 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole respectively. This greener chemical procedure has advantages such as shorter reaction time, absence of toxic and hazardous catalyst, chemicals and solvent, highly functional group tolerance, easy work up procedure and product separation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
