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 this research, Keggin-type polyoxometalate, H5PMoV2O40 (denoted as PMoV) was immobilized on modified NiFe2O4 nanoparticles to produce a magnetically separable catalyst. This catalyst was characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), cyclic voltummetry (CV), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) and UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV-DRS). The catalytic activity […]
