Review Paper on Mannich Bases for Heterocyclic Compound Synthesis
Abstract: Mannich bases are the Lewis bases which are β-amino carbonyl compounds synthesized as the endproducts of well known condensation reaction known as Mannich reaction. These are theaminoalkylation reactions involving the formation of carbon-carbon, carbon-Nitrogen, carbonsulphurbonds. Mannich bases of 2-furylmethylketone, catechol, 4-chlorophenol, derivative ofberberine, lawsone, anisaldehyde, benzaldehyde show diversity of biological activities. Mannichreaction is a carbon-carbon bond forming nucleophilic addition reaction and is a key step in synthesisof a widespread variety …

Continuous Mining Approaches with Obsolete Database: A Review
Abstract: The sequential pattern mining on progressive databases is very incipient approach, in which many researchers progressively discover the patterns in period of interest. Period of interest is a sliding window perpetually advancing as the time goes by. As the focus of sliding window changes, the incipient items are integrated to the dataset of interest and obsolete items are abstracted from it and become au courant. In general, the subsisting proposals …
