Undoped and Mn-doped ZnO nanoparticles were successfully prepared by the hydrothermal method with different annealing temperature conditions. Structural, chemical and optical properties of the samples were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Field Emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), UV-Vis spectrophotometry and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The phase purity was confirmed by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) […]
Bis(indolyl)methanes are important group of bioactive metabolites of terrestrial and marine regions. They were synthesized by different methods. Herein, a clean, one-pot synthesis of bis(indolyl)methane derivatives by cyclo-condensation reaction of indole and various aldehydes using Sulfonic acid functionalized silica (SiO2-Pr-SO3H) in aqueous media is reported. The advantages of this new method were simple operation, good […]
The direct three component modified Mannich reaction via condensation of aldehydes, 2-naphthol or 2,7-naphthalendiol and piperidine to generate Betti bases has been carried out over L-proline (20 mol%) with high efficiency under solvent free conditions at 70 OC. Also, the reaction of aromatic aldehyde and 4-hydroxycoumarin in the presence of L-proline (20 mol%) in the […]
Amidoalkyl-2-naphthols as synthetic intermediates play an important role in medicinal chemistry due to their remarkable biological and many pharmacological properties. Owing to the versatile biological activities, industrial and synthetic applications of these compounds, introduction of an alternative methodology is urgent in synthetic organic chemistry. Low yield and harsh reaction conditions promoted the researchers for the […]
The catalytic cracking of a fuel oil over fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) catalyst has been investigated applying different additives. Catalyst mixtures consisting of a equilibrium FCC catalyst (E-Cat) blended with ZSM-5, MCM-41 and Mordenite additives were examined at the additive levels of 25 wt.%. The catalytic performance of the matrix was studied in a fixed […]
A series of transition metal complexes with two thiosemicarbazide Schiff bases, 1-(4-dimethylaminobenzyl- idene)thiosemicarbazide (ABTSC) and 1-(2-pyridincarboxyl-idene) thiosemicarbazide (TCTS) were synthesized with Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), Cd(II) and Ag(I) salts (chloride and acetate). These complexes were characterized by different methods including proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1HNMR), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), ultra violet visible (UV-Vis), molar conductance (λm), […]
A mild, efficient and fast method for the oxidation of alcohols and trimethylsilyl, tetrahydropyranyl and methoxymethyl ethers to their corresponding carbonyl compounds using CrO3 in the presence of rice husk ash (RHA) is reported. All reactions were performed at room temperature in high to excellent yields. A new, efficient and green catalyst, heterogeneous reaction conditions, […]
A mild and efficient method has been developed for the preparation of substituted coumarins from reaction of various phenols with different β-ketoesters via Pechmann condensation in the presence of Brønsted acidic ionic liquid (N-(4-sulfonic acid) butyl triethylammonium hydrogen sulfate) as an effective catalyst under solvent-free conditions. Different phenols reacted with ethyl acetoacetate to produce the […]
A simple, green and efficient method for synthesis of 2,4,5-trisubstituted imidazoles is described via three-component cyclocondensation of benzil or benzoin, aldehyde and ammonium acetate by using the nano SiO2-supported ferric hydrogen sulfate (FHS/SiO2), as a catalyst, under solvent-free conditions. The nano SiO2 support and catalyst were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) […]
Facile and versatile procedures have been explored for the synthesis of tetrahydropyridines and 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones. These protocols employ the one-pot multi-component condensation of arylaldehydes and aromatic amines with β-keto esters and isatoic anhydride in chloroacetic acid, respectively. The reactions proceeded smoothly to generate the corresponding products in high yield. We have found that the use of […]
