^a Method A: The reaction was assisted by microwave irradiation under solvent-free conditions; Method B: The reaction was assisted by heating in an oil bath under solvent-free conditions; ^a^∗ Method A1: The reaction was assisted by microwave irradiation under heterogeneous conditions; ^a^∗∗ Method B1: The reaction was assisted by heating in an oil bath under heterogeneous conditions; ^b Yield, Conv. (conversion yield), and Selectivity were determined by GC/MS; ^c time = reaction time in minutes; ^c^∗ time = reaction time in hours; ^d P = power of microwave oven (W); ^f temp = oil bath temperature (°C).
