Fe3O4@WO3-E-SMTU-NiII: as an environmentally-friendly, recoverable, durable and noble-free nanostructured catalyst for C-C bond formation reaction in green media

In the present study, NiII immobilized on Fe3O4@WO3 functionalized by aminated epichlorohydrin using S-methylisothiourea (Fe3O4@WO3-E-SMTU-NiII) as a novel magnetically separable nanostructured catalyst was successfully synthesized and characterized using FT-IR, XRD, TEM, FE-SEM, EDX, EDX mapping, VSM, TGA, H2-TPR, ICP-OES and CHNS techniques. Characterization results revealed the spherical morphology and superparamagnetic behaviour of the as-synthesized catalyst with mean diameters of 19-31 nm as well as uniform distributions of the desired elements (Fe, O, W, C, N, S and Ni). The antibacterial activity of Fe3O4@WO3-E-SMTU-NiII was evaluated against a set of Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria, and the catalyst showed considerable activity against the Staphylococcus aureus strain. The aforementioned nanostructured catalyst exhibited perfect catalytic efficiency in the Heck-Mizoroki and Suzuki-Miyaura reactions under mild conditions without using toxic solvents (EtOH as a green solvent and WEB as a benign base). Desired coupled products were obtained from the reaction of different Ar-X (X = I, Br, Cl) with alkyl acrylates and arylboronic acids. A high nickel content with negligible metal leaching during the course of reactions led to the high catalytic performance and stability of Fe3O4@WO3-E-SMTU-NiII under optimized reaction conditions. The magnetically separation and ease of recovery and reusability of up to six cycles without a discernible decrease in catalytic activity or metal leaching are the most important features of the catalytic system from both industrial and environmental viewpoints.

Synthesis of novel triiodide ionic liquid based on quaternary ammonium cation and its use as a solvent reagent under mild and solvent-free conditions

In this article, for the first time, N,N,N-triethyl-3-iodopropan-1-aminium triiodide [N2223I] [I3] was synthesized and utilized as both a reagent and a solvent in combination with H2O2 (35%) to convert aromatic compounds into their corresponding iodo derivatives. The iodination was accomplished in the absence of organic solvents, and in most instances, water was the sole extraction solvent used. The consumed reagent N,N,N-triethyl-3-iodopropan-1-aminium iodide was comfortably recycled.

NiFe2O4@SiO2@ZrO2/SO42−/Cu/Co nanoparticles: a novel, efficient, magnetically recyclable and bimetallic catalyst for Pd-free Suzuki, Heck and C–N cross-coupling reactions in aqueous media

The novel heterogeneous bimetallic nanoparticles of Cu–Co were synthesized and successfully applied as a recyclable magnetically catalyst in Heck, Suzuki, and C–N cross-coupling via a quick, easy, efficacious and environmentally protocol.
