Application of novel and reusable Fe3O4@CoII(macrocyclic Schiff base ligand) for multicomponent reactions of highly substituted thiopyridine and 4H-chromene derivatives

In this research study we designed and synthesized Co^II(macrocyclic Schiff base ligand containing 1,4-diazepane) immobilized on Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles as a novel, recyclable, and heterogeneous catalyst. The nanomaterial was fully characterized using various techniques such as Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, energy-dispersiveX-ray spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, vibrating sample magnetometry, differential reflectance spectroscopy, Brunauere–Emmette–Teller method, inductively coupled plasma, and elemental analysis (CHNS). Then, the catalytic performance was successfully investigated in the multicomponent synthesis of 2-amino-4-aryl-6-(phenylsulfanyl)pyridine-3,5-dicarbonitrile and 2-amino-5,10-dioxo-4-aryl-5,10-dihydro-4H-benzo[g]chromene-3-carbonitrile derivatives. Furthermore, the catalyst was isolated using a simple filtration, and recovery of the nanocatalyst was demonstrated five times without any loss of activity.

N‐(3‐silyl propyl) diethylene triamine N,N',N'‐tri‐sulfonic acid immobilized on Fe3‐xTixO4 magnetic nanoparticles: A new recyclable heterogeneous nanocatalyst for the synthesis of hexahydroquinolines

In the present study, for the first time N‐(3‐silyl propyl) diethylene triamine N,N',N''‐tri‐sulfonic acid (SPDETATSA) was grafted on magnetic Fe_3‐xTi_xO₄ nanoparticles. The structure of the resulted nanoparticles was characterized based on Fourier‐transform infrared (FT‐IR), energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy (EDX), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) analyses. The results confirmed the successful immobilization of sulfamic acid groups onto the magnetic support. These nanoparticles exhibited high catalytic activity as novel magnetically recyclable acid nanocatalyst in the synthesis of a diverse range of hexahydroquinolines through one‐pot tandem reactions in excellent yields. Also, this nanocatalyst performed satisfactory catalytic maintenance of activity for the synthesis of the reaction products after 4 rounds of recycling with no considerable loss of activity.     

Preparation of novel palladium nanoparticles supported on magnetic iron oxide and their catalytic application in the synthesis of 2‐imino‐3‐phenyl‐2,3‐dihydrobenzo[d]oxazol‐5‐ols

Novel Pd nanoparticles were prepared in five successive stages: 1) preparation of the Fe₃O₄ magnetic nanoparticles (Fe₃O₄ MNPs), 2) coating of Fe₃O₄ MNPs with SiO₂ (Fe₃O₄@SiO₂), 3) functionalization of Fe₃O₄@SiO₂ with 3‐chloropropyltrimethoxy‐ silane (CPTMS) ligand (Fe₃O₄@SiO₂@CPTMS), 4) further functionalization with 3,5‐diamino‐1,2,4‐triazole (DAT) ligand (Fe₃O₄@SiO₂@CPTMS @DAT), and 5) the complexation of Fe₃O₄@SiO₂@CPTMS@DAT with PdCl₂ (Fe₃O₄@SiO₂@CPTMS@ DAT@Pd). Then, the obtained Pd nano‐catalyst characterized by different methods such as the elemental analysis (CHN), FT‐IR, XRD, EDX, SEM, TEM, TG‐DTA and VSM. Finally, the Pd catalyst was applied for the synthesis of various 2‐imino‐3‐phenyl‐2,3‐dihydrobenzo[d]oxazol‐5‐ols.
