Silica ferric hydrogensulfate is an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the cyclization of 2- aminochalcones to the corresponding 2,3-dihydroquinolin- 4(1H)-ones. This intramolecular aza Michael reaction was carried out in high yields using chalcones bearing of electron donating and electron withdrawing groups. The catalyst is reusable without significant decreases in its activity after four times recycling.The present […]
Amidoalkyl-2-naphthols as synthetic intermediates play an important role in medicinal chemistry due to their remarkable biological and many pharmacological properties. Owing to the versatile biological activities, industrial and synthetic applications of these compounds, introduction of an alternative methodology is urgent in synthetic organic chemistry. Low yield and harsh reaction conditions promoted the researchers for the […]
A novel hybrid catalyst based on grafting Cu on furfural imine-functionalized halloysite was designed, characterized and used for promoting synthesis of xanthene derivatives via three- component reaction of benzaldehyde derivatives, dimedone, and β-naphthol in aqueous media and under mild reaction condition. The results established high catalytic activity of the hybrid system, which was superior to […]
Preparation of 4-aminiquinaldine grafted on silica-coated nano-Fe3O4 particles (Fe3O4@SiO2-AQ) as a novel retrievable heterogeneous nanocatalyst is described. This novel hybrid nanomaterial was applicated for the green synthesis of substituted 2-amino-4H-chromenes via the one-pot condensation reaction of an aldehyde, malononitrile and α-naphthol/β-naphthol/phenol under solvent-free condition. Eco-friendly method, high yield and purity of the desired products, short […]
This study is the first report of the application of sulfonated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs-SO3H) in the synthesis of tetrahydrobenzo[a]xanthene and tetrahydrobenzo[a]acridine derivatives. The catalyst was prepared via a chemical approach and the sulfonated groups were attached to the side-wall of MWCNTs with total density of 2.58 mmol.g-1. In order to prove functionalization of the […]
