An efficient and eco-friendly method for the one-pot synthesis of 14-aryl-14H-dibenzo [a,i]xanthene-8,13-dione derivatives has been developed in the presence of Fe3O4@SiO2 core-shell nanoparticles. The multi-component reactions of 2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone, β-naphthol and aldehydes were efficiently catalyzed using novel nano-scale materials under reflux conditions. The present method offers several advantages such as environmentally benign, simple work-up, excellent yield […]
In this study, silica nanoparticles were used as support to prepare a new heterogeneous catalyst system for application in organic reactions. The reaction of silica nanoparticles with sodium 2-bromoethane-1-sulfonate resulted in the connection of a sulfonic acid group on the surface of silica nanoparticles (NSESA). The synthetic catalyst system was characterized using different microscopic and […]
