Herein we explore facile synthesis of 4-(3H)-Qunazolinone derivatives, achieved by the cyclocondensation of anthranilic acid, aromatic amines and triethyl orthoformate in presence of thiamine hydrochloride (Vitamin B1) as a catalyst, using grinding method. This protocol offers several advantages such as reusability of catalyst, excellent yield, shorter reaction time and economic availability.Quinazolinone derivatives are one of […]
Nanocrystalline ZnZr4(PO4)6 ceramics as an efficient catalyst have been used for the preparation of methyl 6-amino-5-cyano-4-aryl-2,4-dihydropyrano[2,3-c]pyrazole-3-carboxylates by the four component reaction of dimethylacetylenedicarboxylate, hydrazinehydrate, malononitrile and aromatic aldehydes in water at room temperature. In this research Nano-ZnZr4(PO4)6 coordinate with the active groups(particular C=O, C≡N and active H) thus increasing the activity of the groups. Also […]
In this report, the synthesis, characterization, and application of the eggshell-supported-Cu(II) salophen complex, as a novel and heterogeneous catalyst, is described. The catalyst is characterized by the UV, XRD, FT-IR, and SEM techniques. The eggshell-supported-Cu(II) salophen complex is a versatile, green, inexpensive, and simple catalyst used for the multi-component reactions (MCRs) of terminal alkynes, aldehydes, […]
A facile and highly efficient one-pot synthesis of multisubstituted pyrrole derivatives is reported via a four-component reaction of amines, aldehydes, acetylacetone and nitromethane using Pr3+ doped CoFe2O4 as a catalyst in solvent free conditions at 90°C. The catalyst is easily recoverable using magnet and could be reused without a significant loss of catalytic activity. Even […]
A water soluble, Bronsted acid, 5-sulfosalicylic acid as an efficient organocatalyst was used for the synthesis of physiologically active 2-substituted benzimidazole derivatives from o-phenylenediamine and aromatic aldehydes in ethanol at reflux condition. Cost-effectiveness, use of non-hazardous solvents, metal free and commercially available catalyst, single-step, environmentally friendly green method, high conversions, cleaner reaction profiles and simple […]
In the present study, Co-ZnO and Co-Ni-ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized by sonochemical methods and the structural and optical properties were investigated through Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), UV-Vis spectroscopy, Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), and Photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL) methods. Morphology of nanoparticles obtained a small granular shape with an average crystallite […]
Nano sulfated titania was tested as solid acid heterogeneous catalyst for the synthesis of 4-(Trifluoromethyl) coumarin and coumarin derivatives under solvent-free condition. Factorial design evidenced a positive effect of reaction temperature, amount of catalyst, and solvents. This nano-sized sulfated titania has been prepared by a sol-gel hydrothermal process. The prepared sulfated titania showed high catalytic […]
The catalytic oxidation of toluene over copper oxide supported on natural diatomite was investigated. The catalyst was prepared by the wet impregnation method and characterized by using the Brunauer Emmett Teller (BET), field emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and Temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) analysis. The highest catalytic performance for airborne […]
A series of copper and cobalt substituted nanospinel ferrites have been synthesized by the hydrothermal method. These compounds were characterized by FT-IR, XRD, EDX, SEM and VSM techniques. All of the synthesized nanospinel ferrites were found to be highly efficient and magnetically recoverable in the solvent-free synthesis of substituted 2,6-(2-hydroxybenzyl)-phenols (trisphenols). A wide range of […]
TiO2 nanoparticles, as a photocatalyst for oxidation of dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP) as an organophosphorus simulant of chemical warfare agent, were prepared by using sol-gel method. The prepared nanoparticles were then modified with transition metals in order to decrease the electron-hole recombination and increase the photocatalytic activity. Transition metal ions including Pt, Pd and Ni were […]
