Mn doped ZnO nanocomposite thin film coated on glass by a simple spin-coating method was used to degrade an azo textile dye from aqueous environment. Mn doped ZnO nanocomposite thin film was characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The photo-reduction activity of photocatalyst was evaluated using an azo textile […]
Immobilization of catalysts on the surface of some inert supports makes therecovering step easier. Because of the specific physicochemical properties, zeolites are good candidate as catalyst supports. In this study, zeolite X was synthesized by natural kaolin and TiO2 was incorporated into zeolite phase by impregnation method. Degradation of Safranin Orange, methylene blue and 2,4–dinitroaniline […]
For the first time B-podands have been studied as an efficient and powerful catalysts in the ring opening of epoxides with azide anion in water. The reaction afforded the corresponding 1,2-azidoalcohols with high regioselectivity under mild reaction conditions and in a highly atom economic fashion.
A convenient, efficient and practical procedure for the synthesis of 1-amidoalkyl 2-naphthols is described by condensation of aromatic aldehydes with amides and 2-naphthol in the presence of P2O5/SiO2 as an efficient catalyst. Moreover, in the present of this catalyst, the synthesis of 14-aryl or alkyl-14H-dibenzo[a,j]xanthenes is studied by condensation of aldehydes with 2-naphthol. Using solvent-free […]
Two simple protocols for the synthesis of three-component condensation reaction of an aldehyde, β-ketoester and urea or thiourea to obtain the 3, 4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones (thiones) using nano silica phosphoric acid are reported. Short reaction times, high yields, reusability of catalyst and easy workup are some advantages of these protocols.
A simple and mild method for tetrahydropyranylation of alcohols is reported at room temperature using a catalytic amount of 3-methylimidazolinium hydrogensulfate([Hmim]HSO4) as a green, efficient and reusable catalyst. Using solvent-free conditions, non-toxic and inexpensive materials, modest and clean work-up, short reaction times and high yields of the products are the advantages of this method.
An efficient green route for the preparation of naphthoxazinones, applying a three-component one-pot condensation reaction of 2-naphthol, aromatic aldehyde and urea in the presence of nano silica supported ferric chloride under solvent-free conditions has been developed. The present procedure offers several advantages such as short reaction time, simple workup, recovery and reusability of the catalyst.
P2O5-SiO2 (30% w/w) was found to be a useful catalyst for the synthesis of various 2-substituted aryl benzimidazoles under solvent-less and in solvent conditions from o-phenylenediamine and aldehydes. The products were directly recrystallized from methanol.
In our current study, supercritical water impregnation (SCWI) was introduced as a unique catalyst preparation method by employing the high diffusivity property of supercritical water. The method allows nano-particles to place on support surfaces in extremely dispersed conditions. The silica-based nanocatalyst granules for this purpose were prepared by initial impregnation of highly porous silica (500 […]
Sulfonated polystyrene/montmorillonite nanocomposite (OMMT/PS-SO3H) was prepared and used as a novel, efficient and inexpensive heterogeneous acid catalyst in the one-pot reaction three-component Mannich reaction of ketones, aromatic aldehydes and amines under solvent-free conditions. The catalyst was characterized by XRD, SEM, TG, BET and FT-IR techniques. This method has advantages of high yield, moderate to excellent […]
