“…It has been reported that certain reactions such as Diels-Alder [15,16], ethenoid [17], Claisen reaction [18], Fischer cyclization [19], synthesis of heterocycles [20], hydrolysis of esters [21,22], phosphoanhydride [23] and adenosine triphosphate formation [24], rapid hydrogenation [25], deprotection of benzyl esters [26], deacetylation of diacetates [27], Graebe-Ullmann synthesis [28], oxazoline formation [29,30], Knoevengel condensation [31], and aromatic ether formation [32,33] could be facilitated by microwave irradiation. However, to the best of our knowledge, no such application has been devised for the previously described Mannich-type reaction.…”
