Synthesis of Novel Nanomagnetic Catalyst with Acetic Acid Tags: Application in the Synthesis of New Amidoalkyl Phenols under Solvent-Free Condition

Synthesis and Application of Task-Specific Bimetal-Organic Frameworks in the Synthesis of Biological Active Spiro-Oxindoles

The use of click chemistry as a smart and suitable method for the development of new heterogeneous catalysts is based on metal-organic frameworks as well as the production of organic compounds. The development of the click chemistry method can provide a new strategy to achieve superior properties of MOFs. Here, the two metals Co and Fe are used to create a bimetallic-organic framework. In the following, the click chemistry and postmodification method are well organized and an acidic heterogeneous porous catalyst is developed. This prepared catalyst was used as a highly efficient catalyst for the preparation of new spiro-oxindoles obtained through click chemistry with good to excellent yields (80-94%). This presented catalytic system can compete with the best reported catalytic systems. The findings showed that the presence of Co and Fe metals in the MOF, and the presence of the triazole ring on the catalyst, can increase the catalytic efficiencies. This study offers novel insights into the architecture of Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs), click chemistry, and biologically active compounds. Additionally, the research explores the antibacterial properties of the synthesized spiro-oxindoles and catalysts. The findings reveal significant antibacterial activities of the synthesized compounds against S. aureus, MRSA, and E. coli bacteria.

Two Schiff-base Complexes of Copper and Zirconium Oxide Fabricated on Magnetic Nanoparticles as Practical and Recyclable Catalysts in C-C Coupling Reaction

:

Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) were prepared via a chemical co-precipitation method. Then, the surface of Fe3O4 MNPs was modified by (3-Chloropropyl)trimethoxysilane and then two Schiff-base complexes of zirconium oxide and copper were stabilized on modified Fe3O4 MNPs. These catalysts were characterized using SEM, EDS, WDX, FTIR, XRD, TGA, VSM and AAS techniques. The catalytic activity of these catalysts was described in the carbon-carbon coupling reaction. VSM analysis of these catalysts indicate the high magnetic performance, therefor these catalysts can be recovered by an external magnet and reused for several times without missing in the amount of catalysts. Reusability, excellent yields and high TON values indicate the high efficiency of these catalysts. Leaching of these catalysts was studied by AAS which leaching of copper or zirconium was not observed. Also, the stability of these catalysts was confirmed by characterization of recovered catalysts and comparing with fresh catalysts.
