Ultrasonic accelerated efficient synthesis of aminobenzochromenes using Ag 2 Cr 2 O 7 nanoparticles as a reusable heterogeneous catalyst

Synthesis and characterization of Fe3O4@Sal@Cu as a novel, efficient and heterogeneous catalyst and its application in the synthesis of 2-amino-4H-chromenes

This research paper presents the synthesis and characterization of the magnetic nanoparticle, Fe₃O₄@Sal@Cu, [Fe₃O₄@Si-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-NH-NH-CO-N=CH-(2-HO-C₆H₄-)@Cu] as a green and retrievable catalyst. This catalyst was characterized by FTIR, XRD, EDX and TGA analyses. In addition, the catalytic activity of this new catalyst was investigated for the synthesis of 2-amino 4H-chromenes by producing good-to-excellent yields under mild reaction conditions. The other advantages of the developed nanocatalyst are its ecofriendliness, being easy to handle, high reusability and being magnetically separable. The synthesis of some new derivatives of 2-amino-4H-chromenes in the presence of this nanocatalyst is also reported.

Employing of Fe3O4/CuO/ZnO@MWCNT MNCs in the solvent-free synthesis of new cyanopyrroloazepine derivatives and investigation of biological activity

In this research, we synthesized the Fe₃O₄/CuO/ZnO@MWCNT magnetic nanocomposites using water extract of Petasites hybridus rhizome, and the high performance of synthesized catalyst was confirmed by using in the solvent-free multicomponent reactions of isatoic anhydride, N-methylimidazole, alkyl bromides, activated acetylenic compounds and 2-aminoacetonitrile at ambient temperature for the production of new cyanopyrroloazepine derivatives in high yields. This catalyst could be used several times in these reactions and have main role in the yield of product. The synthesized cyanopyrroloazepines have NH groups in their structure and for this reason have good antioxidant activity. Also, employing Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria in the disk diffusion procedure confirmed some cyanopyrroloazepines antimicrobial effect. The results showed that synthesized cyanopyrroloazepine prevented the bacterial growth. This used process for preparation of new cyanopyrroloazepine has some improvements such as low reaction time, product with high yields, simple separation of catalyst and products.

Ethanol-Drop Grinding Approach: Cadmium Oxide Nanoparticles Catalyzed the Synthesis of [1,3]Dioxolo[g][1]benzopyran-6-carboxylic Acids and Pyrido[d]pyrimidine-7-carboxylic Acids

AIM AND OBJECTIVE

In the last decades, it has extensively been verified that nanostructured transition metal oxides emerge as inexpensive, available and extremely efficient heterogeneous catalysts in chemical transformations. The high electrical conductivity, high carrier concentration, and improved reactivity in cadmium oxide nanoparticles (CdO NPs) make it as a potential candidate for applications in the fields of nanocatalysis. [1]Benzopyran and pyridopyrimidine derivatives compose major classes of heterocyclic compounds, which have a wide spectrum of biological activities.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

In the present work, we report a facile and highly effective synthesis of 8- aryl-8H-[1,3]dioxolo[4,5-g][1]benzopyran-6-carboxylic acids and 1,3-dimethyl-2,4-dioxo-5- phenyl-1,2,3,4,5,8-hexahydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-7-carboxylic acids via CdO NPs catalyzed cyclo condensation reaction of 4-substituted phenylmethylidenepyruvic acids with 3,4- methylenedioxyphenol or 6-amino-1,3-dimethyluracil, which was accomplished under ethanoldrop grinding at room temperature. The described catalyst was prepared successfully by a simple precipitation method and characterized by the Fourier transformed infrared absorption (FT-IR) spectroscopy, X-Ray diffraction (XRD) analytical technique, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

RESULTS

A number of [1,3]dioxolo[g][1]benzopyran-6-carboxylic acids and pyrido[d]pyrimidine- 7-carboxylic acids were effectively synthesized in high yields (96-98%) within short reaction times (10-15 min). All synthesized compounds were well-characterized by IR, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, and also by elemental analyses.

CONCLUSION

In summary, we have developed a very simple and impressive procedure for the synthesis of 8-aryl-8H-[1,3]dioxolo[4,5-g][1]benzopyran-6-carboxylic acids and 1,3-dimethyl- 2,4-dioxo-5-phenyl-1,2,3,4,5,8-hexahydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-7-carboxylic acids as biologically interesting structures in the presence of CdO NPs as an efficient recyclable heterogeneous catalyst. The remarkable advantages for the offered protocol compared with traditional methods are short reaction time, good yields of the products, and the ease of operation with simple work-up procedure.
