Under mild conditions and without any additional organic solvent, synthesis of carbamatoalkyl naphthols could be carried out in the present of two halogen-free Br${\phi}$nsted acidic ionic liquids, 3-methyl-1-(4-sulfonic acid)butylimidazolium hydrogen sulfate and N-(4-sulfonic acid)butylpyridinium hydrogen sulfate. A wide range of aromatic aldehydes easily undergo condensation with $\beta$-naphthol and methyl or benzyl carbamate to afford the desired products of good purity in excellent yields. The present methodology offers several advantages such as a simple procedure with an easy work-up, short reaction times, and excellent yields. The catalysts could be recycled and reused for several times without substantial reduction in their catalytic activities.

We have described an efficient synthesis of quino[2,3-b][1,5]benzoxazepine α-aminophosphonate derivatives by the nucleophilic addition of triethyl phosphite to substituted quino[2,3-b][1,5]benzoxazepines promoted by easily available, inexpensive and mild catalyst KAl(S$O_4)_2{\cdot}12H_2$O(alum). The reactions proceed smoothly at room temperature under solvent-free reaction conditions and providing high yield of product in very short reaction time.
