Ionic liquid phase technology supported the three component synthesis of Hantzsch 1,4-dihydropyridines and Biginelli 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones under microwave dielectric heating

A microwave dielectric heating assisted liquid phase synthesis of 1,4-dihydropyridines, 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones, pyridines and polyhydroquinolines using task-specific ionic liquid as a soluble support was described. The efficiency of the ionic liquid phase organic synthesis (IoLiPOS) methodology was demonstrated by using a one-pot three component condensation. The structure of the intermediates in each step was verified routinely by spectroscopic analysis and, after cleavage the target compounds were obtained in good yields and high purities.
