Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) have been functionalized with -SO3H groups using new three steps chemical routes. Firstly, OH groups have been attached to CNT surfaces through a radical reaction. The second step involves converting the hydroxyl groups into the oxide one and last step included the attachment of –SO3H groups on the MWCNTs surfaces in the presence of 1-butyl-3-methyl imidazo...

A water-soluble and air-stable Pd(NH3)2Cl2/cationic 2,2'-bipyridyl system was found to be a highly-efficient and reusable catalyst for the coupling of aryl iodides and alkenes in neat water using Bu(3)N as a base. The reaction was conducted at 140 degrees C in a sealed tube in air with a catalyst loading as low as 0.0001 mol % for the coupling of activated aryl iodides with butyl and ethyl acry...

2-Amino-substituted ketones react with α-methylene ketones under solvent-free conditions at 90 °C in thepresence of a catalytic amount of zirconium dodecylphosphonate to create the corresponding quinolinesin excellent yields. This procedure recommends numerous advantages such as easy work-up, use of mild,reusable and safe catalyst, short reaction timeand high yields. The new compounds have been...

The aryl-(Z)-N-[2-amino-1,2-dicyanovinyl]formamidine 2 cyclize in solvent-free conditions and in the presence of a base to give a 5-amino-1-aryl-4-cyanoimidazoles 3. Silica sulfuric acid as an efficient and reusable heterogeneous catalyst has been used for the preparation of amidines 2 from formimidate 1 through reaction with aromatic amines at room temperature and in good to excellent yields. ...

a simple and efficient method for synthesis of tetrahydropyrimido[4,5-b]quinoline derivatives via three component reaction of aromatic aldehydes, dimedone and 6-amino uracil derivatives using a catalytic amount of sulfonic acid functionalized nanoporous silica (sba-15-pr-so3h) is described. the advantages of this method are easy and clean work-up, high yield, mild reaction condition, reusable c...

In this work, the ligand-free heterogeneous copper Cu-g-C3N4 was synthesized and used for the hydroxylation of aryl iodides to synthesize phenols using cheap bases. The catalyst was conveniently prepared, air-tolerant, reusable and scalable, and is very efficient for a wide range of substrates. The synthesis of substituted phenols can be carried out under air conditions and has great potential ...
