Ultrasound-Assisted 1,3-Dipolar Cycloadditions Reaction Utilizing Ni-Mg-Fe LDH: A Green and Sustainable Perspective

Ultrasound-assisted synthesis of novel pyrazoles using Ni-Mg-Fe LDH as a catalyst in cyclopentyl methyl ether (CPME) is introduced. Different LDHs were tested as a catalyst for the synthesis of pyrazoles via a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction. Among them, Ni-Mg-Fe LDH was the superior catalyst for this reaction. This protocol offered high yields, a short reaction time, and a green solvent, and with the reuse of this catalyst six times with the same activity, it could be regarded as an ecofriendly, greener process. The NiMgFe LDH catalyst with the smallest particle size (29 nm) and largest surface area showed its superior efficacy for the 1,3 dipolar cycloaddition rection and can be successfully used in up to six catalytic cycles with little loss of catalytic activity. A plausible mechanism for this reaction over the Ni-Mg-Fe LDH is proposed.

Bis(pyridine)enaminone as a Precursor for the Synthesis of Bis(azoles) and Bis(azine) Utilizing Recent Economic Green Chemistry Technology: The Q-Tube System

We reported herein efficient economic high-pressure synthesis procedures for the synthesis of bis(azoles) and bis(azines) by utilizing the bis(enaminone) intermediate. Bis(enaminone) reacted with hydrazine hydrate, hydroxylamine hydrochloride, guanidine hydrochloride, urea, thiourea, and malononitrile to form the desired bis azines and bis azoles. A combination of elemental analyses and spectral data was used to confirm the structures of the products. Compared with conventional heating, the high-pressure Q-Tube method promotes reactions in a short period of time and provides high yields.

Efficient and Eco-Friendly Perspectives for C-H Arylation of Benzothiazole Utilizing Pd Nanoparticle-Decorated Chitosan

In this contribution, an eco-friendly, sustainable, and efficient palladium nanoparticle-decorated chitosan (Pd@Chitosan) catalyst was synthesized by a simple impregnation method. The synthesized material was utilized as a heterogeneous catalyst for the C-H arylation of benzothiazole under ultrasonic irradiation. The Pd@Chitosan catalyst efficiently catalyzed the conversion of aryl iodides and bromides to 1-(4-(benzothiazol-2-yl)phenyl)ethan-1-one selectively. A single product of 83–93% yield was obtained in N,N-dimethylformamide solvent at 80 °C for 2.5h. This study reveals that Pd@Chitosan is an efficient catalyst, which catalyzes the C-H arylation with good reaction yields. The activity of the Pd@Chitosan is due to the presence of highly dispersed Pd(0) nanoparticles on the surface of the chitosan and Pd2+; a tentative mechanism was proposed based on the XPS results of the fresh catalyst and spent catalyst.

Explorative Sonophotocatalytic Study of C-H Arylation Reaction of Pyrazoles Utilizing a Novel Sonophotoreactor for Green and Sustainable Organic Synthesis

The development of a mild, general, and green method for the C-H arylation of pyrazoles with relatively unreactive aryl halides is an ongoing challenge in organic synthesis. We describe herein a novel sonophotoreactor based on an ultrasonic cleaning bath and blue LED light (visible light) that induce copper-catalyzed monoarylation for pharmacologically relevant pyrazoles. The hybrid effect of ultrasonic irradiation and blue LED is discussed to interpret the observed synergistic action. A broad array of pyrazoles coupled with iodobenzene avoids expensive palladium metal or salts, and certain designed substrates were attained. Only comparatively inexpensive copper(I)iodide and 1,10-phenanthroline were used all together as the catalyst. The presented technique is a greener way to create C-H arylation of pyrazoles. It significantly reduces the amount of energy needed.

Ultrasonic-Assisted Michael Addition of Arylhalide to Activated Olefins Utilizing Nanosized CoMgAl-Layered Double Hydroxide Catalysts

An efficient cobalt-based layered double hydroxide (LDH)-catalyzed Michael addition of an aryl halide compound onto activated olefin as a Michael acceptor is described. The synthesized catalytic materials were characterized using different techniques to investigate their physicochemical, morphological, and textural properties. The partial isomorphic substitution of magnesium by cobalt ions in the cationic sheets of the layered double hydroxide (CoMgAl-LDH) appears to be an appropriate catalyst to cause this reaction. This technique enables compound synthesis resulting from the 1,4-addition in good to excellent yields. Moreover, ultrasound was found to have beneficial effect on this reaction due to the cavitation phenomenon.
