It is used as an active methylene compound as its most reactive centre i.e. C-2 is present between two strong electron withdrawing carbonyl groups. The C-2 of dimedone acts as a nucleophilic centre [2] while other less reactive sites i.e.C-1 and C-3 act as electrophilic centres. It is used in various organic reactions like knoevenagel condensation [3], Hantzsch reaction [4], Michael addition [3], Suzuki coupling [5] and Biginelli reaction [6] to form a number of useful products. It is also used as a precursor to form various biologically and pharmacologically active compounds that are used as anti-tumor [7], antibacterial [8], anti malarial [9], antifungal [10], antimicrobial [11] and antioxidant [12].

[4] has reported a synthetic strategy for polyhydroquinoline derivatives (9) by a simple multi component coupling reaction of dimedone (1), aldehydes and ethyl acetate (8) in the presence of ammonium acetate via Hantzsch mechanism. The reaction was aided by a small amount of Yb(OTf)3 (5 mol %) as a catalyst. The beneficial aspects of this strategy include eco friendly conditions, simple handling, normal temperature and high yield of the product. O O R O O Yb(OTf)3,5 mol 5% CO2Et 1eq.

The charming aspects of this reaction were eco friendly conditions, less reaction time, high yield of the desired 4 product, simple workup, easy handling and affordable conditions. The structure of the synthesized compounds was verified by using various identification techniques such as, IR, NMR, Mass Spectroscopy, CHN, elemental analysis and X-ray diffraction. 1 R O H H3C O O O N O O H3C 1 1 R R H2O,NHEt2 N 1 + N N + R CH R.T,Reflux - + 3 HO O O NH2Et2 CH3 O O (1) (10) (11) (12) 2 R 2 R (Scheme 4) 1.6.3 Unsymmetrical Hantzsch reaction Davoodina et al.

The present protocol has been associated with plenty of benefits like, high activity and reusability of the catalyst and high yield of the product formed.
