The surface ofFe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) was modified by L-cysteine through condensation of COOH groups of L-cysteine and OH groups on the surface of Fe3O4. The –SH group of preparedFe3O4@Cys MNPs oxidized to –SO3H group and Fe3O4@Cys–SO3H as an environmentally friendly magnetic nanoparticle was prepared. The MNPs were characterized by FT-IR, XRD, SEM and TEM […]
In this study, a novel and environmentally benign o-phenylendiamine stabilized on silica-coated Fe3O4 magnetic nanocatalyst (Fe3O4@SiO2@propyltriethoxysilane@o-phenylendiamine-SO3H/HCl) as a hybrid magnetic organometallic nanocatalyst has been synthesized. After that, the structure of this new catalyst was completely characterized via Fourier transforms infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET), atomic force microscopy (AFM), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) images, energy […]
Betaine hydrochloride (BHC), as an ionic salt was found to be an efficient and recyclable catalyst for the one-pot synthesis of 4-thiazolidinediones. The methodology of study was achieved by one-pot condensation of aromatic aldehydes, aromatic amine and mercaptoacetic acid in the presence of betaine hydrochloride (BHC) at reflux temperature in ethanol as solvent. The efficiency […]

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 […]
In this work, for the first time, a new and effective bulk modified carbon paste electrode (CPE) was prepared by TiO2 nanoparticles and chitosan and then Ni2+ ions were incorporated to this electrode by immersion of the modified electrode in nickel chloride solution. The values of electron transfer coefficient, charge-transfer rate constant and electrode surface […]
An efficient method has been developed for synthesis of 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles using the silica-anchored Cu(I) aminothiophenol complex [SiO2-AT-Cu(I)] as a novel heterogeneous catalyst. The prepared catalyst is characterized by the FT-IR spectroscopy, and TGA, SEM, and ICP techniques. Terminal alkynes react with aroyl bromides and sodium azide in the presence of CuI anchored on silica […]
The central theme of this article is how to explore a novel route to fabricate graphene– ZnO@SiO2 hybrid by a covalent process. The synthesis procedure consists of three-steps: (1) synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles, (2) ZnO nanoparticles modification by tetraethyl orthosilicate and (3-aminopropyl) triethoxysilane after introduction of amino groups on its surface, (3) the covalent attachment […]
An environmentally benign procedure for the synthesis of vicinal nitrohydrins via the regioselective ring opening reaction of epoxides with nitrite anion using silica-bound 3-{2-[poly(ethylene glycol)]ethyl}-substituted 1-methyl-1H-imidazol-3-ium bromide as an effective heterogeneous phase transfer catalyst was described. Short reaction time, high yield of products, simple work-up procedure, and recyclability of the catalyst were some of the […]
A novel magnetite nanoparticle-based heterogeneous acidic catalyst [Fe3O4@SiO2@Am-PPC-SO3H] [HSO4] was successfully prepared and characterized by SEM, EDX, TGA, VSM and FT-IR techniques. The magnetically retrievable and sustainable catalyst was investigated in the reaction of aldehyde and o-aminophenol for the synthesis of benzoxazoles. The reactions occurred in water and produced the corresponding products in high yields. […]
