Abstract:Employment of metal nanoparticles has been one of the most promising synthetic strategies for a number of chemical transformations. New spiroindane‐1,3‐diones were synthesized through [3 + 2] cycloaddition in moderate to high yields by a three‐component reaction of heterocyclic chalcone derivatives, ninhydrin, and sarcosine/L‐proline. The presence of heterogenous MgSiO3 nanoparticles (NPs) under microwave irradiation showed a robust effect in improving the yield of the desired products. Furthermore, the cataly… Show more
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.
