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.

An efficient protocol for the synthesis of pyridines and hydroquinolones using IRMOF-3/GO/CuFe2O4 composite as a magnetically separable heterogeneous catalyst

This study reports a facile and cost-effective technique for preparing magnetic copper ferrite nanoparticles supported on IRMOF-3/GO [IRMOF-3/GO/CuFe₂O₄]. The synthesized IRMOF-3/GO/CuFe₂O₄ was characterized with IR, SEM, TGA, XRD, BET, EDX, VSM, and elemental mapping. The prepared catalyst revealed higher catalytic behavior in synthesizing heterocyclic compounds through a one-pot reaction between various aromatic aldehydes, diverse primary amines, malononitrile, and dimedone under ultrasound irradiations. Among the notable features of this technique are higher efficiency, easy recovery from the reaction mixture, removal of a heterogeneous catalyst, and uncomplicated route. In this catalytic system, the activity level was almost constant after various stages of reuse and recovery.

Phase-transfer catalyzed Michael/ammonolysis cascade reactions of enaminones and olefinic azlactones: a new approach to structurally diverse quinoline-2,5-diones

Michael/ammonolysis cascade reactions between cyclohexane-1,3-dione-derived enaminones and olefinic azlactones via phase-transfer catalysis have been developed. This method provides rapid access to a suite of architecturally complex and diverse quinoline-2,5-diones bearing a secondary amide group at the C-3 position in moderate to excellent yields (53-94%) and with excellent diastereoselectivities (>99 : 1 dr in most cases). The achievement of a preparative-scale reaction and the diverse product derivatization that can be obtained highlight the application potential of this protocol both in academic and industrial settings. An investigation of the reaction mechanism implies that tetrabutylammonium hydroxide may be the actual catalyst during this cascade reaction.

Synthesis and Structure of Hetaryl Substituted 2,5-dioxo-1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8- Octahydroquinolines

AIMS AND OBJECTIVE

Condensation of 5-hetarylidene-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-diones with 5,5-dimethyl-3-arylamino-2-cyclohexanones yields 1-aryl-4-hetaryl-7,7-dimethyl-2,5-dioxo-l,2,3,4,5,5,7,8-octahydro-quinolines. The structures of all the synthesized compounds have been verified by IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and mass spectral methods. The 13C-NMR assignments were supported by HSQC and HMBC experiments. Moreover, spin decoupling and NOE experiments have been carried out in order to elucidate stereoisomeric configurations of the compounds. It has been established that the N-phenyl ring, which projects from the plane of the octahydroquinolinedione ring, has a shielding effect on the magnetic field of the protons at 7- and 8-positions of the ring in the molecules of the compounds synthesized.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

The NMR spectra were recorded on a Varian Gemini spectrometer [400 MHz (1H) and 100 MHz (13C)]. EI mass spectra were obtained with a Hewlett Packard GC/MS 6890/5973 machine. MALDI-TOF mass measurements were recorded on a Bruker auto-flex III smart beam.

RESULTS

Various reaction conditions were applied in order to find an optimum and convenient procedure for the formation of octahydroquinoline derivates having hetaryl group. The highest yields (40-50 %) were achieved using acetic acid as solvent, p-toluenesulphonic acid as acidic catalyst, and excess enaminone (1.5 equiv).

CONCLUSION

We synthesized eight new 1-aryl-7,7-dimethyl-4-hetaryl-1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydro-quinoline-2,5-dione compounds containing thienyl core as a result of Michael addition reaction of Knoevenagel products of Meldrum's acid with dimedone enaminone compounds. Optimum circumstances were established using various reaction conditions and catalyzers throughout the research. The structures of all the synthesized compounds were analyzed by IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and mass spectral methods. Furthermore, the structures were verified with the help of 2D (HSQC and HMBC), spin decoupling, and NOE NMR techniques.

By this method, the reaction time has been reduced, giving an excellent yield of the product. The catalyst was prepared by a hydrothermal method followed by a wet impregnation method. The catalyst had shown Brønsted acid sites and Lewis acid sites. The used catalyst could be actively recycled with a marginal decrease in yield up to five recycles. The prepared catalyst was characterized by FT-IR, pyridine FT-IR, XRD, SEM, EDS, XPS, TEM, and BET surface area analysis. The synthesized compounds were characterized by FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and GC-MS spectroscopy.

Recent Synthetic Approaches and Biological Evaluations of Amino Hexahydroquinolines and Their Spirocyclic Structures

In this review, the recent synthetic approaches of amino hexahydroquinolines and their spirocyclic structures were highlighted. The synthetic routes include, two-components, three-components or fourcomponents reactions. The two-component [3+3] atom combination reaction represents the simplest method.

Use of ionic liquids as neoteric solvents in the synthesis of fused heterocycles

Medicinal chemistry has been benefited by combinatorial chemistry and high-throughput parallel synthesis. Ionic liquids reduce the materials and energy intensity of chemical processes and products, minimize or eliminate the dispersion of harmful chemicals in the environment, maximize the use of renewable resources and extend the durability and recyclability of products. It is possible to tune the physical and chemical properties by varying the nature of the cations and anions. Ionic liquids can be easily recovered, cleaned up, and reused repeatedly.
