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.

Fe3O4@iron-based metal-organic framework nanocomposite [Fe3O4@MOF (Fe) NC] as a recyclable magnetic nano-organocatalyst for the environment-friendly synthesis of pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives

Various pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidines were synthesized by the multicomponent reaction of aldehydes, malononitrile, and acidic C-H compounds such as barbituric acid through the tandem Knoevenagel-Michael cyclocondensation pathway in an environmentally friendly reactive medium in the presence of a recoverable nanocomposite. This nanocomposite includes Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles placed on an organometallic framework. The synthesized Fe₃O₄@iron-based metal-organic framework nanocomposite was characterized using scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, a vibrating sample magnetometer, and thermogravimetric analysis.

Importance of Hybrid Catalysts toward the Synthesis of 5H-Pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2-ones/2,4-diones (Thiones)

The pyranopyrimidine core is a key precursor for medicinal and pharmaceutical industries due to its broader synthetic applications as well as its bioavailability. Among its four possible isomers, we found that 5H-pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidine scaffolds have a wide range of applicability, and in recent years, they have been intensively investigated, but the development of the main core is found to be more challenging due to its structural existence. In this review article, we cover all of the synthetic pathways that are employed for the development of substituted 4-aryl-octahydropyrano/hexahydrofuro[2,3-d]pyrimidin-2-one (thiones) and 5-aryl-substituted pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidindione (2-thiones) derivatives through a one-pot multicomponent reaction using diversified hybrid catalysts such as organocatalysts, metal catalysts, ionic liquid catalysts, nanocatalysts, green solvents, catalyst-/solvent-free conditions, and miscellaneous catalysts as well as the mechanism and recyclability of the catalysts. This review mainly focuses on the application of hybrid catalysts (from 1992 to 2022) for the synthesis of 5H-pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidine scaffolds. This review will definitely attract the world's leading researchers to utilize broader catalytic applications for the development of lead molecules.

One-Pot Synthesis of Benzopyrano-Pyrimidine Derivatives Catalyzed by P-Toluene Sulphonic Acid and Their Nematicidal and Molecular Docking Study

A cost-effective and environmentally benign benzopyrano-pyrimidine derivative synthesis has been established with the condensation of different salicylaldehyde derivatives, piperidine/morpholine with malononitrile, in the presence of a catalyst containing p-toluene sulphonic acid (PTSA) at 80 °C temperature. This procedure offers a new and enriched approach for synthesizing benzopyrano-pyrimidine derivatives with high yields, a straightforward experimental method, and short reaction times. The synthesized compounds were investigated for their nematocidal activity, and the result shows that among the four compounds, compounds 4 and 5 showed strong nematocidal activity against egg hatching and J2s mortality. The nematocidal efficacy of the compounds might be due to the toxicity of chemicals which are soluble in ethanol. The nematocidal effectiveness was directly related to the concentration of ethanolic dilutions of the compounds, i.e., the maximum treatment concentration, the higher the nematocidal action, or the higher the mortality and egg hatching inhibition. In the present study, with support from docking analysis, the relation between chemical reactivity and nematocidal activity of compound 4 was inferred.
