In this work, a green and efficient methodology has been developed for the synthesis of 1,2,3-triazoles by ‘copper nanoparticles supported on nanocellulose (CuNPs/NC)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction in glycerol, an environmentally benign solvent, with excellent yields. The present catalyst wascharacterized by TEM, XRD, SEM-EDX and FT-IR spectroscopy. The reusability of the prepared nanocatalyst was examined up to five times without significant loss of catalytic activity.

Development of greener methodologies in synthetic organic chemistry has brought awareness in recent decades due to the ecological performance of green solvent media and catalytic systems. Here, we carried out the peptide bond formation reaction in one of the environmentally secure solvents, ‘ionic liquids’ in the presence of coupling reagent and in the absence of external base at room temperature, affording dipeptides in good to excellent yields

The feasible and one of the green ways to synthesize organic compounds especially pyrazole and its derivatives are systematically presented. The one-pot synthesis of pyrazole was achieved by condensation of various hydrazines and 1,3-diketone derivatives at room temperature using transition metal-based ionicliquids. Herein, the unique combination of Fe(III) with ionic liquid is explored and utilized as an efficient homogeneous catalyst for the synthesis of pyrazole and its derivatives. The homogenous catalyst thus synthesised was re-used up to the fourth cycle (with 90%, 88%, 84%, 78% yields respectively).
