Abstract
A convenient and efficient method for undergraduate student experiments involves the one-pot synthesis of phenytoin from benzoin. This method utilized ultrasonic irradiation in the presence of basic catalyst at room temperature and atmospheric pressure, resulting in shortened reaction times, good yields, and excellent reproducibility. By employing a low-cost ultrasonic cleaner for ultrasonic irradiation in student experiments, the need for expensive equipment investment during the teaching process can be minimized. Consequently, this approach is suitable for widespread promotion and application in undergraduate education.
期刊介绍：
Ultrasonics Sonochemistry stands as a premier international journal dedicated to the publication of high-quality research articles primarily focusing on chemical reactions and reactors induced by ultrasonic waves, known as sonochemistry. Beyond chemical reactions, the journal also welcomes contributions related to cavitation-induced events and processing, including sonoluminescence, and the transformation of materials on chemical, physical, and biological levels.
Since its inception in 1994, Ultrasonics Sonochemistry has consistently maintained a top ranking in the "Acoustics" category, reflecting its esteemed reputation in the field. The journal publishes exceptional papers covering various areas of ultrasonics and sonochemistry. Its contributions are highly regarded by both academia and industry stakeholders, demonstrating its relevance and impact in advancing research and innovation.
