Application of SBA-Pr-SO3H as a solid acid nanoreactor in the Biginelli reaction

Sulfonic acid functionalized nanoporous silica (SBA-Pr-SO3H) with a pore size of 6 nm catalyzed three component coupling of aromatic aldehydes, urea and ethyl acetoacetate to afford the corresponding dihydropyrimidinones under solvent free condition. This new protocol for Biginelli reaction has important advantages such as green synthesis, short reaction time, easy isolation and high yields of […]

Fast one-pot synthesis of 1,8-dioxo-decahydroacridine derivatives using sulfonic acid functionalized LUS-1 and the study on their antimicrobial activities

Mesoporous silica LUS-1 (Laval University Silica) was successfully functionalized by propyl sulfonic acid and was used as a recyclable catalyst for the synthesis of acridine-1,8-diones via a pseudo four component reaction of aromatic aldehydes, dimedone and ammonium acetate (or anilines). The excellent yields, short reaction time, simple work-up procedure, and environmentally friendly conditions are advantages […]

Preparation and characterization of ionic liquid functionalized SBA-15 and its application in the synthesis of 2,3-dihydroquinazolinones

N-Methyl-Nʹ-propyltrimethoxysillylimidazolium chloride was prepared as ionic liquid (IL) containing silylating agent and then used for modification of the internal surface of SBA-15 to gain a heterogeneous ionic liquid catalyst. Subsequently, the obtained SBA-IL was characterized using various techniques, including SEM and TEM images, FT-IR, X-ray diffraction, TGA/DTA and BET analyses. It was found that the […]

One-pot synthesis of tetrahydropyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline derivatives using sulfonic acid functionalized SBA-15 and their antimicrobial activities

A Simple and efficient method for synthesis of tetrahydropyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline derivatives via three component reaction of aromatic aldehydes, dimedone and 6-amino uracil derivatives using a catalytic amount of sulfonic acid functionalized nanoporous silica (SBA-15-Pr-SO3H) is described. The advantages of this method are easy and clean work-up, high yield, mild reaction condition, reusable catalyst and environmentally benign […]

Synthesis of the biologically active henna based benzochromene derivatives using ionic liquid functionalized SBA-15 as a nanoreactor

SBA-15 was prepared and then functionalized with N-methyl-N’-propyltrimethoxysilyl imidazolium chloride as ionic liquid moiety. The ionic liquid functionalized SBA-15 (SBA-IL) was characterized by different analytical techniques including FT-IR, N2 adsorption-desorption, TGA and SEM image. According to the obtained results it was found that the organic groups were grafted onto the pores of SBA-15 because its […]

A green method for the synthesis of indeno[1,2-b]pyridines using Fe3O4@SiO2@PrSO3H as a nanomagnetic catalyst

The acidic agent (SO3H) was stabilized on the silica coated Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles to produce Fe3O4@SiO2@Pr-SO3H, as a heterogeneous acidic catalyst, was designed, and then fully studied and characterized by FT-IR, XRD, TGA, DTA, TEM, and SEM analysis. Subsequently, the catalytic activity of Fe3O4@SiO2@PrSO3H was investigated by the one-pot four- component condensation reaction between 1,3-indandione, […]
