Quaternary Vanado‐Molybdotungstophosphoric Acid [H 5 PW 6 Mo 4 V 2 O 40 ] Over Natural Montmorillonite as a Heterogeneous Catalyst for the Synthesis 4 H ‐Pyran and Polyhydroquinoline Derivatives

Zn complexed on hybrid manganese doped cobalt ferrite nanoparticles covered by silica as a catalyst in the synthesis of 2-amino-4H-pyran and N- arylquinoline derivatives

In the present work, Zn complexed on hybrid manganese doped cobalt ferrite nanoparticles covered by silica were synthesized. These MNPs were characterized using different techniques including Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), Field emission-scanning electron micro-scope (FE-SEM), Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), Vibration sample magnetometer (VSM), Inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP), Zeta potential and Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). FE-SEM Images showed uniform spherical shape with rough surfaces and an aggregation in structure of MNPs. A decrease in Ms is visible in VSM analysis due to the increase in particle diameter as a result of loading the organic coating on the surface of the magnetic nanoparticles. According to TGA analysis, the synthesized MNPs have good stability up to 125 °C. The ICP analysis indicates the presence of 0.13 mmol/g zinc on the surface of loaded MNPs. The effect of these prepared MNPs as a catalyst was studied in the synthesis of 2-amino-4H-pyran and N- arylquinoline derivatives. This method provides excellent yield of products with short reaction time, simple purification and easy separation of the catalyst. Furthermore, the reusability of the catalyst during five periods was not associated with a significant decrease in its activity.

Controlled Modification of Triaminoguanidine-Based μ3 Ligands in Multinuclear [VIVO]/[VVO2] Complexes and Their Catalytic Potential in the Synthesis of 2-Amino-3-cyano-4H-pyrans/4H-chromenes

Reaction of tris(2-hydroxybenzylidene)-triaminoguanidinium chloride (I·HCl) and tris(5-bromo-2-hydroxybenzylidene)-triaminoguanidinium chloride (II·HCl) with [VIVO(acac)2] (1:1 molar ratio) in refluxing methanol resulted in mononuclear [VIVO] complexes, [VIVO(H2L1')(MeOH)] (1) and [VIVO(H2L2')(MeOH)] (2), respectively, where I and II undergo intramolecular triazole ring formation. Aerial oxidation of 1 and 2 in MeOH in the presence of Cs2CO3 gave corresponding cis-[VVO2] complexes Cs[(VO2)(H2L1')] (3) and Cs[(VO2)(H2L2')] (4). However, reaction of an aerially oxidized methanolic solution of [VIVO(acac)2] with I·HCl and II·HCl in the presence of Cs2CO3 (in 1:1:1 molar ratio) gave mononuclear complexes Cs[(VO2)(H3L1)] (5) and Cs[(VO2)(H3L2)] (6) without intramolecular triazole ring formation. Similar anionic trinuclear complexes Cs2[(VO2)3(L1)] (7) and Cs2[(VO2)3(L2)] (8) were isolable upon increasing the amounts of the vanadium precursor and Cs2CO3 to 3 equiv to the reaction applied for 5 and 6. Keeping the reaction mixture of 1 in MeOH under air gave [VVO(H2L1')(OMe)] (9). Structures of 3, 7, 8, and 9 were confirmed by X-ray crystal structure study. A permanent porosity in the crystalline metal-organic framework of 7 confirmed by single-crystal X-ray investigation was further verified by the BET study. Along with a suitable reaction mechanism, these synthesized compounds were explored as effective catalysts for the synthesis of biomolecules 4H-pyran/4H-chromenes.

Clay based heterogeneous catalysts for carbon-nitrogen bond formation: a review

Clay and modified clay-based catalysts are widely used in organic transformation. Owing to the interlayer ions and good ion exchange capacity of clay, replacement with another ion and incorporation of different nanomaterials can be done. Due to these significant properties of clay, it can be utilized in the synthesis of various organic compounds. Carbon-nitrogen bonded compounds possess diverse applications in different fields. These compounds are prepared using different solid acid heterogeneous catalysts. This review presents a detailed discussion on clay used for the carbon-nitrogen bond formation reaction, such as the Biginelli reaction and A3 and KA2 coupling reactions. Additionally, other C-N bond formation reactions using various clay-based catalysts such as bentonite, montmorillonite, hydrotalcite and halloysite clay with various metals, metal oxides, Kegging type heteropoly acid and various nanomaterial incorporated clay heterogeneous catalysts are discussed.

Cesium salt of 2-molybdo-10-tungstophosphoric acid as an efficient and reusable catalyst for the synthesis of uracil derivatives via a green route

A solid catalyst, cesium salt of 2-molybdo-10-tungstophosphoric acid (Cs_2.3H_0.7PW₁₀Mo₂O₄₀) named as Cs-3, was synthesized by a simple, cheap, clean, and eco-friendly method. The physicochemical properties of the synthesized catalyst were studied via FTIR spectroscopy, XRD, EDX, ICP-AES, SEM-TEM, and BET techniques. The precursor 2-molybdo-10-tungstophosphoric acid (H₃PW₁₀Mo₂O₄₀) was easily soluble in water and other polar solvents. Moreover, their cesium salts Cs _x H_3-x PW₁₀Mo₂ with Cs content in the range x = 2.0-2.5 were insoluble in water and other polar solvents. The surface area of the precursor (5.483 m² g^-1) increased after partial proton exchange by Cs⁺ ions (111.732 m² g^-1), and all samples with x > 1 were resistant to leaching of active components and can be recycled without obvious loss of activity. This catalyst used for the synthesis of uracil derivatives via a green route under solvent free conditions at 70 °C gives higher yield within a shorter reaction time. The catalyst was found to be more active and reusable over nine runs with a negligible loss of activity.

Incorporation of Keggin-based H3PW7Mo5O40 into bentonite: synthesis, characterization and catalytic applications

The Keggin-based molybdo-substituted tungstophosphoric acid, H3[PW7Mo5O40]·12H2O, were synthesized and incorporated with a bentonite clay by using a wetness impregnation method. The catalysts were characterized using several methods, such as inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffractometry (XRD), scanning electron microscopy energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA). This extremely active catalytic system provides a green strategy for the synthesis of 1,8-dioxo-octahydroxanthene and 1,8-dioxo-decahydroacridine derivatives under solvent free conditions at 80 °C with a good reaction mass efficiency, effective mass yield, and excellent atom economy. Both the surface acidity and catalytic activity sharply increased after H3[PW7Mo5O40]·12H2O was impregnated with bentonite clay. In addition, the PW7Mo5/bentonite catalyst can be conveniently recovered and reused numerous times without demonstrating a significant loss in activity.

Tungsten-substituted molybdophosphoric acid impregnated with kaolin: effective catalysts for the synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones via biginelli reaction

A series of highly reusable heterogeneous catalysts (10-25 wt% PMo7W5/kaolin), consisting of tungsten-substituted molybdophosphoric acid, H3PMo7W5O40·24H2O (PMo7W5) impregnated with acid treated kaolin clay was synthesized by the wetness impregnation method. The newly synthesized catalyst was fully characterized using inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis and thermal analysis (TG-DTA). The synthesized materials were shown to be efficient in the synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones via Biginelli reaction under solvent-free conditions. The obtained results indicate that 20% PMo7W5/kaolin catalyst showed remarkably enhanced catalytic activity compared to the bulk PMo7W5 catalyst, and also the (10 and 15%) PMo7W5 catalyst supported on kaolin clay.
