Eucalyptol: A Bio-Based Solvent for the Synthesis of O,S,N-Heterocycles. Application to Hiyama Coupling, Cyanation, and Multicomponent Reactions

We report here the use of eucalyptol as a bio-based solvent for Hiyama coupling, cyanation, and multicomponent reactions on O,S,N-heterocycles. These heterocycles were chosen as targets or as starting materials given their biological potential; they play an important role in therapeutically active compounds. Once again, eucalyptol proved to be a credible and sustainable alternative to common solvents.

Automated summary

The study demonstrates the use of eucalyptol as a bio-based solvent for various reactions on heterocycles, highlighting its potential as a sustainable alternative in therapeutically active compounds.
