A novel organic-inorganic hybrid magnetic nanomaterial, namely nano-[Fe3O4@SiO2@R-NMe2][FeCl4] (nano-[FSRN][FeCl4]) was prepared, and characterized by EDX, elemental mapping, FE-SEM, FT-IR, XRD, VSM, TG and DTG analyses. Then, it was applied as a highly efficient and magnetically recyclable catalyst for the solvent-free synthesis of bis-coumarins from 4-hydroxycoumarin (2 eq.) and arylaldehydes (1 eq.). NMe2 is a basic […]
Lanthanum (III) oxide (La2O3) was applied as an efficient bifunctional catalyst to develop a new methodology in the production of 2-amino-4-aryl-4H-pyrans and pyrazolopyranopyrimidines in the absence of solvent. In both synthetic protocol, due to the dual functionality of lanthanum (III) oxide (i.e. having basic and acidic Lewis sites), it was very useful and general, and […]
