Abstract
This article investigates an efficient and eco-friendly protocol for protecting amines and alcohols as important molecules in organic chemistry, using Fe3O4@MCM-41/Zr@Piperazine as a newly reported magnetic mesoporous nanostructured catalyst. Firstly, the protection of alcohols was developed through their transformation to trimethylsilyl ethers. Then this reagent was applied for the acceleration of the acetylation of amines and alcohols with acetic anhydride and acetyl chloride, respectively. Finally, the influence of this highly active nanocatalyst on the formyl protection of amines was studied. The outgoings of these works illustrated the superiorities of this functionalized mesoporous mixed metal nanocatalyst in terms of accomplishing the reactions in high yields during proper reaction times and its superparamagnetic nature leading to easy separation, and several times, reusability.
