Title: Influence of Electronic Factors on "Solvent-Free and Catalyst-Free Biginelli Reaction"
Abstract: A series of Biginelli condensation were carried out employing urea, ethyl acetoacetate with a series of different derivatives of benzaldehyde. A green synthetic procedure was followed for performing the Biginelli reactions. The reaction conditions were found to be different for electron rich and electron deficient benzaldehydes. So the electronic effect has shown a significant impact on the reaction condition of the Biginelli condensation.
