Synthesis and characterization of the novel diamine‐functionalized Fe3O4@SiO2 nanocatalyst and its application for one‐pot three‐component synthesis of chromenes

Fe₃O₄@SiO₂@propyltriethoxysilane@o‐phenylendiamine as an environmentally‐benign functionalized silica‐coated magnetic organometallic nanomaterial has been synthesized and characterized by Fourier transforms infrared (FT‐IR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images and energy dispersive X‐ray (EDX) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) analyses. Then, its catalytic activity was investigated for the one‐pot three‐component condensation reaction between dimedone, malononitrile and various substituted aromatic aldehydes to afford the corresponding 2‐amino‐4H‐chromene derivatives under mild reaction conditions. This nanocatalyst can be easily recovered from the reaction mixture by using a magnet and reused for at least five times without significant decrease in catalytic activity.     

Host (Nanocavity of Aluminium-Incorporated Mesoporous KIT-6)–guest (12-tungesto(molybdato) Phosphoric Acid) Nanocomposite Material: Efficient and Reusable Catalysts for the Hosomi–Sakurai Three-Component Coupling Reaction

Abstract

The immobilization of heteropoly acids (HPAs) into the Al-functionalized KIT-6 mesoporous molecular sieve has been carried out to see the effect of Al-KIT-6 as a host matrix on the HPA activities. These modified mesoporous molecular sieves are effective catalysts for the Hosomi–Sakurai three-component coupling reaction via condensation of aldehydes, silyl ethers, and allylsilanes.

An efficient one-pot multi-component synthesis of 3,4,5-substituted furan-2(5H)-ones catalyzed by tetra-n-butylammonium bisulfate

A facile one-pot synthesis of 3,4,5-substituted furan-2(5H)-one derivatives from a three-component reaction of aniline derivatives, dialkylacetylenedicarboxylates and aromatic aldehydes under mild conditions using tetra-n-butylammonium bisulfate as a catalyst has been developed.     

Determination of Hg(II) in Environmental Water Samples by Dispersive Liquid Phase Microextraction Combined with Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry

In this study, a method of dispersive liquid phase microextraction combined with the flame atomic absorption spectrometry was proposed for the determination of trace Hg using diphenylthiocarbazone as chelating reagent. Several factors which have effect on the microextraction efficiency of Hg, such as pH, extraction and dispersive solvent type and their volume, concentration of the chelating agent, extraction time were investigated, and the optimized experimental conditions were established. After extraction, the enrichment factor was 68. The detection limit of the method was 45 ng mL^?1, and the relative standard deviation for eight determinations of 2 μg mL^?1 Hg was 1.7%. The results for the determination of Hg in environmental water samples (tap water, well water, mineral water and Caspian sea water) have demonstrated the applicability of the proposed method.     

Catalyst-Free,Efficient, and Facile Conversion of Epoxides to β-Hydroxy Thiocyanates Under Neutral Conditions

Epoxides are efficiently and easily converted to their corresponding β-hydroxy thiocyanates by NH₄SCN in refluxing acetonitrile in a regio- and chemoselective manner under neutral conditions without using a catalyst, in spite of the use of many different catalysts reported in the literature for this purpose.
