A simple, efficient, and green protocol for Knoevenagel condensation in a cost-effective ionic liquid 2-hydroxyethlammonium formate without a catalyst

Abstract: Knoevenagel condensation of aromatic aldehydes with active methylene compounds such as malononitrile, ethylcyanoacetate, and cyanoacetamide proceeded very smoothly in reusable and cheap ionic liquid 2-hydroxyethylammonium formate at room temperature in the absence of a catalyst. Compared to other reported ionic liquids, the ionic liquid 2-hydroxyethylammonium formate shows better potential in the applications on the industrial scale with its low cost and viscosity.

“…Yue et al 252 used 2-hydroxyethylammonium acetate as a catalyst for Knoevenagel condensation of aromatic aldehydes with ethyl cyanoacetate or malononitrile, achieving only E -isomers with yields of 83–98%. A similar study by Ying et al 253 employed 2-hydroxyethylammonium formate as the solvent for a series of Knoevenagel condensations of aromatic aldehydes and methylene active compounds ( e.g. , malononitrile, ethylcyanoacetate, cyanoacetamide).…”

“…[22] Conversion of fructose into 5ethoxymethyl furfural with hydrogen sulfate ionic liquids as co-solvent and catalyst is carried out efficiently by Guo et al [23] Knoevenagel condensation reaction between aromatic aldehydes and methylene active compounds were performed successfully using ionic liquid 2-hydroxyethylammonium formate at room temperature. [24] Besides above stated few examples ILs found catalytic applications in reaction such as Friedel-Crafts reaction, region selective alkylation, stereo selective halogenations, Diels-Alder reaction, lignocellulose processing, oxidation of sulfides, oxidation of alcohols, epoxidation of alkenes, Baeyer-Villiger oxidation reaction, oxidation of alkanes, Fischer Indole synthesis. [25,26] Catalytic activities of acidic ionic liquids in esterification, saponification, alkylation, heterocyclic synthesis, carbonium ion generation and rearrangements, dehydration, oxidation and polymerization are of immense research interest (scheme 3).…”
