Multicomponent reactions and multi-catalytic cascade processes

This highly topical emerging area is the inside cover of OBC Issue 5.

Dhevalapally B. Ramachary and Sangeeta Jain at University of Hyderabad, India, believe in the development of different ways of producing chemical products that have an influence in our every day life in a more sustainable way, producing less waste and involving less money.

They believe that organic synthesis can be made much more efficient by designing processes in which multiple catalysts operate sequentially in “one-pot” with multiple components.

In this review, Ramachary and Jain describe the first systematic efforts toward the development of sequential one-pot combinations of multi-component reactions (MCRs) and multi-catalysis cascade (MCC) reactions.
