An efficient route for the synthesis of novel thioether containing dihydropyrano[2,3-c]pyrazoles has been accomplished via a solvent-free, catalyst-free, one-pot, five component domino strategy. This synthetic approach offers several advantages such as an easy work-up, no need for purification techniques and a short reaction time with good atom economy and high yields of the products (81–86%).
