Compared with known protocols, the method employed catalytic Ca(OH)_2 as the cheap, mild base catalyst and dilute aqueous EtOH(20%, v/v)as the green and safe solvent. The procedure was easily operated: In most cases, the product could be isolated by a simple filtration, and purified by washing with water. This paper provided experimental details of the reactions, which could be applied in gram-scale synthesis and should be a very reliable and practical protocol to prepare these useful compounds in laboratory and at the industrial level.展开更多
