College of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Zhejiang University of Technology, Hangzhou, China
The room‐temperature ionic liquid n‐butylpyridinium tetrafluoroborate (BPyBF4) is used as a recyclable alternative to classical molecular solvents in the one‐pot synthesis of 2‐arylimidazo[1,2‐a]pyrimidines by reaction with ketones, [hydroxy(tosyloxy)iodo]benzene, and 2‐aminopyrimidine. Significant rate enhancements and improved yields have been observed.

Department of Chemistry, Gansu Key Laboratory of Polymer Materials, Northwest Normal University, Lanzhou, Gansu 730070, China
A series of methyl aryloxyacetates (3a–3f) have been synthesized by the reaction of substituted phenol with methyl chloroacetate under the conditions of microwave irradiation and phase‐transfer catalysis. By the optimization of the reaction conditions, we developed a good method for the preparation of methyl aryloxyacetates, which have the advantages of high yields, short reaction times, ease of workup, and simple operation.
