Increasing number of researches focusing on the use of solid heterogeneous catalysts for the synthesis of organic compound provides evidence that these catalysts continue to evolve as viable alternatives. In recent years, environmental benign industrial chemical process has been developed. In this sense, heterogeneous catalysts play a vital role in the development of cleaner technologies over homogeneous catalyst. These solid catalyst used as good supporting agents, entrain by products and ability to selectivity of product. The main advantages of heterogeneous catalyst are novelty, operational simplicity, good yields, no base, or no any additional activator required, the simple work up, superficial automation, no need for anhydrous conditions.
Manoj N. Bhoi was obtained his M.Sc. degree in organic chemistry in 2012 both from the Gujarat University, Ahmedabad (India). Currently, he is pursuing his Ph.D. under the guidance of Dr. Hitesh D. Patel at the Chemistry Department of the Gujarat University, Ahmedabad. His research focuses on multicomponent reactions and asymmetric synthesis.
