Microwave‐induced Stereoselectivity in Synthesis of trans‐4‐Aryl‐3‐methyl‐6‐oxo‐4,5,6,7‐tetrahydro‐2H‐pyrazolo[3,4‐b]pyridine‐5‐carbonitriles

A facile synthesis of trans isomers of 4‐aryl‐3‐methyl‐6‐oxo‐4,5,6,7‐tetrahydro ‐ 2H ‐ pyrazolo[3,4‐b]pyridine‐5‐carbonitriles via three‐component condensation reaction of an aldehyde, 3‐amino‐5‐methylpyrazole and ethyl cyanoacetate in acetonitrile has been developed under microwave irradiation. This one‐pot reaction proceeds without any catalyst in short times and gives the product in high selectivities and high yields.

Magnetic nanoporous MCM‐41 supported ionic liquid/palladium complex: An efficient nanocatalyst with high recoverability

In this study, a novel magnetic mesoporous MCM‐41 silica supported ionic liquid/palladium complex (Fe₃O₄@MCM@IL/Pd) with core‐structure was prepared and characterized and its catalytic performance was developed under green conditions. The Fe₃O₄@MCM@IL/Pd was prepared via a post grafting method and was characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermal gravimetric analysis, wide‐ and low‐angle powder X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, vibration sample magnetometer and energy‐dispersive X‐ray analyses. This was applied as an efficient and recoverable nanocatalyst for the one‐pot synthesis of pyrano[2,3‐d]pyrimidine derivatives under ultrasonic conditions. The catalyst was magnetically recovered and reused for 12 consecutive cycles without significant loss of its activity and selectivity.

Synthesis of new bis-benzylidene-hydrazides as a sensitive chromogenic sensor for naked-eye detection of CN¯ and AcO¯ ions

Some new bis-benzylidene-hydrazides were synthesized via a condensation reaction of the corresponding azo dyes with adipic acid dihydrazide. All compounds because of the three possible stereoisomers showed four sets of signals in NMR. The anion recognition studies exhibited that the nitro bis-benzylidene-hydrazide derivative acts as a highly sensitive and selective chromogenic sensor for naked-eye detection of CN¯ and AcO¯ ions, with a distinct color change from yellow to blue and yellow to purple, respectively. The limit of detection (LOD) was found for 1d toward CN¯ to be 1.1?μM. The result of the Job's plot indicated stoichiometry of binding between chemosensor and anions is found to be 1:2.

Synthesis of a novel and reusable biological urea based acidic nanomagnetic catalyst: Application for the synthesis of 2‐amino‐3‐cyano pyridines via cooperative vinylogous anomeric based oxidation

In the current study, a novel and reusable biological urea based nano magnetic catalyst namely Fe₃O₄@SiO₂@(CH₂)₃‐urea‐benzimidazole sulfonic acid was designed and synthesized. The structure of the titled catalyst was fully characterized using several skills including Fourier transform infrared (FT‐IR) spectroscopy, energy dispersive X‐ray (EDX) analysis, X‐ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), thermo gravimetric analysis/differential thermal analysis (TG/DTG) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). Then, the catalytic performance of Fe₃O₄@SiO₂@(CH₂)₃‐urea‐benzimidazole sulfonic acid was successfully inspected towards the multicomponent synthesis of 2‐amino‐3‐cyano pyridine derivatives through a vinylogous anomeric based oxidation pathway.
