Abstract
A simple, efficient and ecofriendly one pot synthesis protocol has been developed for the synthesis of N-substituted decahydroacridine-1,8-diones by using an efficient and recyclable solid acidic silica supported MoO3/SiO2 catalyst from a condensation of aldehyde, amine and cyclic 1,3-diketone in THF. The reaction using MoO3/SiO2 catalyst was carried out under mild condition with very high yields up to 92%. The present approach of this methodology offers several advantages such as shorter reaction times, good yields, low cost, environmentally benign, milder reaction conditions, easy recovery of catalyst and reusability.
