Fe-MCM-22 catalyzed multicomponent synthesis of dihydropyrano [2,3-c] pyrazole derivatives

The Fe-MCM-22 zeolite was found to be an efficient solid heterogeneous catalyst for synthesis of dihydropyrano [2,3-c] pyrazoles via one pot four component reaction of ethyl acetoacetate, hydrazine hydrate, aromatic aldehyde and malononitrile in aqueous alcohol. The catalyst was synthesized by hydrothermal method under autogenous pressure and modified by Fe (III) ion exchange. The prepared […]

Promoting effects of calcium on the performance of Cu-MgO catalyst in hydrogenation of furfuraldehyde

In the present study, the effects of calcium doping on the performance of the co-precipitated Cu-MgO catalysts prepared with different calcium loadings in the selective hydrogenation of furfuraldehyde were investigated. The results proved that the addition of this promoter had a remarkable impact on the catalytic performance. The conversion of furfuraldehyde enhanced up to 83% […]

Nano TiO2–H3BO3 as an efficient and recycable catalyst for the synthesis of 5-substituted-1H-tetrazoles

An efficient method for the synthesis of 5-substituted-1H-tetrazoles through the reaction of nitriles with sodium azide using titanium oxide–supported boric acid (TiO2-H3BO3) catalyst was reported. The reactions were carried out at 120 °C and provided the corresponding tetrazoles in good to excellent yields. This method displayed significant advantages such as stability of the catalyst, high […]

Nano-Fe3O4 as a heterogeneous recyclable magnetically separable catalyst for synthesis of nitrogen fused imidazoheterocycles via double C-N bond formation

An efficient and convenient approach towards the synthesis of nitrogen fused imidazoheterocycles through double C-N bond formation in a single step has been achieved with a good range of substituted phenacyl bromides in the presence of magnetically recoverable Fe3O4 as a green heterogeneous nanocatalyst. The present approach was found to be environmentally benign and economically […]

SBA-15-supported-dithizone-copper(I): An efficient heterogeneous catalyst for synthesis of 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles in water

In this work, the SBA-15-supported dithizone-copper(I) [SBA-15-dtz–Cu(I)] complex as a new heterogeneous catalyst is prepared for the first time. The catalyst prepared is characterized by the FT-IR spectroscopy, SEM, and ICP techniques. This reusable heterogeneous catalyst can be used in the click reactions for the green and facile synthesis of 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazolesvia a one-pot three-component […]

Mn(II)-Schiff base complex immobilized onto MCM-41 matrix as a heterogeneous catalyst for epoxidation of alkenes

A heterogeneous catalyst containing manganese Schiff base complex (derived from 2,4-dihydroxybenzadehyde and 1,2-phenylenediamine) is produced by covalent anchoring in MCM-41 matrix. The synthesized catalyst was characterized by X-ray diffraction pattern (XRD), inductivity coupled plasma (ICP), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, N2 sorbtion-desorbtion isotherm and by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The obtained catalyst was used in […]

Using of modified sugarcane bagasse as a green and inexpensive catalyst for the synthesis of indeno[1,2-b]quinolin-8-one derivatives

Chemical grafting of 3-aminipropyl triethoxysilane to carbonized bagasse and acidification of amino groups leads us to introduce a new, efficient and green solid acid catalyst. We used the Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FE-SEM), elemental-mapping and Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) for the characterization of […]

Improvement of Isopropyl Propionate Esterification Reaction using a Vapor Permeation Membrane Reactor

In this study, a vapor permeation-integrated heterogeneous catalytic esterification reaction was investigated to improve the ester conversion of propionic acid and isopropanol. The reaction was carried out using Amberlyst 15 (Rohm & Haas) as a catalyst with different weight fractions of 3%, 4%, 10%, and 12% wt. relative to propionic acid. A hydrophilic PERVAP®2201 membrane […]

Catalytic oxidative desulfurization of dibenzothiophene by heterogeneous M2+/Al-layered double hydroxide (M2+ = Zn, Mg, Ni) modified zinc oxide

In this study, the preparation of layered double hydroxide-metal oxide (ZnAl-ZnO, MgAl-ZnO, and NiAl-ZnO) was successful. The characterization of the catalyst used XRD, FTIR, and SEM analysis. The catalyst shows high oxidative desulfurization of dibenzothiophene. The percentage conversion of dibenzothiophene on ZnAl-ZnO, MgAl-ZnO, and NiAl-ZnO was 99.38%, 99.34%, and 99.90%, respectively. The acidities of ZnAl-ZnO, […]
