Synthesis, characterization and photocatalytic activity of CeO2-SBA-15

Mesoporous photocatalysts of CeO2/SBA-15 are prepared by two methods of direct synthesis as solvent-usage and solvent-free methods. In solvent-usage method, CeO2/SBA-15 is synthesized in acidic media. While, in solvent-free method, CeO2/SBA-15, has been prepared through the novel path of directly grind cerium salt into the as-prepared samples of SBA-15 occluded with template. This method enables […]

Synthesis of 1,3,5-tri-substituted pyrazoles promoted by P2O5.SiO2

Silica supported phosphorus pentoxide (P2O5·SiO2) is an efficient catalyst for synthesis of 1,3,5-substituted pyrazoles via the condensation of 1,3-diketones and hydrazines. Simplicity of procedure, mild condition, being solvent-free, high yields, and easy workup are some advantages of this protocol.

Brønsted acidic ionic liquid as a metal free catalyst for the one-pot synthesis of α-aminonitriles under mild and solvent-free conditions

An efficient, mild and environmentally friendly method was developed for the Strecker reaction to synthesize α-aminonitriles in the presence of methyl imidazolium hydrogen sulfate ([Hmim][HSO4]) as an efficient catalyst. These syntheses were performed via a one-pot three-component condensation of aldehydes (or ketones), amines, and trimethylsilyl cyanide under mild and solvent free conditions.

Synthesis of 4,4′-(arylmethylene)bis(1H-pyrazol-5-ols) via multi-component reactions by using silica-bonded sulfamic acid derivatives

The one-pot, multi-component synthesis of 4,4′-(arylmethylene)bis(1H-pyrazol-5-ols) by tandem Knoevenagel-Michael reaction of phenylhydrazine, ethyl acetoacetate and aldehydes in the presence of silica-bonded N-propylpiperazine sulfamic acid (SBPPSA) as a recyclable solid acid catalyst was reported. SBPPSA showed much the same efficiency when used in consecutive reaction runs.

Kinetic investigation of photocatalytic degradation of dimethyldisulfide by zeolite A containing nano CdS

In this research, zeolite A was synthesized from waste porcelain and CdS nano-particles were doped in zeolite framework by a precipitation after an ion exchanging process. All raw and modified samples were characterized by FT-IR, XRD and SEM methods. Primary experiments showed that the good efficiency of loaded nano CdS onto the zeolite A for […]

Sulfonated Porous Carbon (SPC): An efficient and recyclable solid acid catalyst for one-pot three-component synthesis of 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones under solvent-free conditions

A simple and efficient procedure has been developed for the synthesis of 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones derivatives under solvent-free conditions. This method uses the condensation of isatoic anhydride, aldehydes, and amines in the presence of a catalytic amount Sulfonated Porous Carbon (SPC). One of the important advantages of the new method is that the SPC could be recycled […]

Application of dimeric ortho-palladated complex of 2-methoxyphenethylamine in the Heck coupling reaction

The application of the [Pd{C6H3(CH2CH2NH2)-4-OMe-5-κ2-C,N}(μ-Br)]2 complex of 2-methoxyphenethylamine in the Heck coupling reaction was considered under both conventional and microwave irradiation conditions, and their results were compared. This complex is an efficient, stable and non-sensitive to air and moisture catalyst for the vinylation of substituted aryl halides with different electronic properties. The cross-coupled products were […]

NanoZnO as an efficient & reusable catalyst for the preparation of 1,4-DHPs via Hantzsch reaction

Easily prepared nanoZnO was found to be as an efficient catalyst in the synthesis of 1,4-DHPs via four-component reaction of 1,3-dicarbonyls, aldehydes and ammonium carbonate in water at 60 °C. The prepared nanoZnO was characterized by XRD and FT-IR analysis, while the determined specific surface area of nano catalyst by BET method was 33 m2/g.
