Efficient, solvent-free synthesis of acridinediones catalyzed by CdO nanoparticles

Utilization of laccase immobilized CdO nanoparticles in synthesis of industrially potent organics and their molecular docking studies

In the present study, Tricholoma giganteum AGHP laccase was immobilized on amino-functionalized cadmium oxide nanoparticles (CdO NPs) which was carried out by glutaraldehyde. The synthesized CdO NPs were characterized by using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDXA) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis which reflected the NPs had an average size of 35 nm with hexagonal and irregular shapes. Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR) study of laccase with amino-functionalized CdO (lac-CdO) NPs confirmed the crosslinking of laccase with CdO NPs. With immobilized laccase, a shift in pH (5.5) and temperature (35 ℃) optima was observed, when compared to free laccase (pH 4.5, 30 ℃). Lac-CdO NPs displayed 1.15 times higher stability (90 ± 0.47%) than free laccase (78 ± 0.69%) at optimum pH of 5.5. Immobilized laccase showed 1.19-fold improvement in thermal stability and 2.25-fold increment in half-life after 3 h of incubation at 50 ℃ as compared to free laccase. Recycling capability study demonstrated that lac-CdO NPs were able to retain 85 ± 0.68% of relative activity at the end of 20th 2,2-azinobis-3-ethylbenzthiozoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) oxidation cycle. In addition, lac-CdO NPs showed remarkable reusability in catalysing various organic synthesis reactions even after several cycle of catalysis. Furthermore, the interactions of organic synthesis reactions and interacted residues were observed by assessing the molecular docking poses of T. giganteum laccase with substrates. The obtained results would be advantageous to develop a biocatalyst over a chemical catalyst for effective synthesis of potent organics having industrial importance.

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.

New Hydrogen-Bond-Enriched 1,3,5-Tris(2-hydroxyethyl) Isocyanurate Covalently Functionalized MCM-41: An Efficient and Recoverable Hybrid Catalyst for Convenient Synthesis of Acridinedione Derivatives

A new nano-ordered 1,3,5-tris(2-hydroxyethyl) isocyanurate-1,3-propylene covalently functionalized MCM-41 (MCM-41-Pr-THEIC) was designed and prepared at room temperature through a simple procedure. According to various microscopic, spectroscopic, or thermal methods and techniques, the correlation of the catalytic performance of the hybrid mesoporous MCM-41-Pr-THEIC to its structural characteristics was fully confirmed. The new MCM-41-Pr-THEIC organosilica nanomaterials were successfully investigated as a solid mild nanocatalyst through hydrogen-bonding activation provided by its organic moiety, for the pseudo-four-component condensation of dimedone, aldehydes, and ammonium acetate or p-toluidine to afford the corresponding acridinedione derivatives under green conditions. Furthermore, the introduced nanocatalyst could be reused at least four times with negligible loss of its activity, indicating the good stability and high activity of the new hybrid organosilica.
