Application

Cobalt(II)nitrate hexahydrate can be used as a catalyst to synthesize:
  • 5-Carboxanilide-dihydropyrimidinone derivatives by the condensation of acetoacetanilides, aldehydes, and urea/thiourea.
  • Nitro indoles by the nitration of indoles using tert-butyl nitrite as the nitro source.
  • Quinazolinones from 2-aminobenzonitriles using alcohols in the presence of phosphine ligand.
