Direct Michael addition/decarboxylation reaction catalyzed by a composite of copper ferrite nanoparticles immobilized on microcrystalline cellulose: an eco-friendly approach for constructing 3,4-dihydrocoumarin frameworks

Composites of copper ferrite oxide nanoparticles immobilized on microcrystalline cellulose were synthesized and studied for their catalytic activity toward the preparation of novel 3,4-dihydrocoumarin derivatives.
