Poly(4-vinylpyridine)-supported copper iodide is reported as a green, efficient and recyclable catalyst for the synthesis of coumarin derivatives by the Pechmann reaction under solvent-free conditions. This catalyst can be recovered by simple filtration and recycled up to eight consecutive runs without any loss of their efficiency.
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.
