- Synthesis and characterization of Piperidine-4-carboxylic acid functionalized Fe3O4 nanoparticles as a magnetic catalyst for Knoevenagel reaction
-
Piperidine-4-carboxylic acid (PPCA) functionalized Fe3O 4 nanoparticles as a novel organic-inorganic hybrid heterogeneous catalyst was fabricated and characterized by XRD, FT-IR, TGA, TEM and VSM techniques. Composition was determined as Fe3O4, while particles were observed to have spherical morphology. Size estimations using X-ray line profile fitting (10 nm), TEM (11 nm) and magnetization fitting (9 nm) agree well, revealing nearly single crystalline character of Fe 3O4 nanoparticles. Magnetization measurements reveal that PPCA functionalized Fe3O4 NPs have superparamagnetic features, namely immeasurable coercivity and absence of saturation. Small coercivity is established at low temperatures. The catalytic activity of Fe 3O4-PPCA was probed through one-pot synthesis of nitro alkenes through Knoevenagel reaction in CH2Cl2 at room temperature. The heterogeneous catalyst showed very high conversion rates (97%) and could be recovered easily and reused many times without significant loss of its catalytic activity.

- Reactions of O,O-Diprotonated Nitro Olefins with Benzenes. Formations of Phenylacetones, 4H-1,2-Benzoxazines and Biarylacetone Oximes
-
O,O-Diprotonated nitro olefins undergo three alternative electrophilic reactions which yield α-phenylacetones, 4H-1,2-benzoxazines and biphenylacetone oximes depending on the reaction conditions (temperature and time) and aromatic substrates.Although these reactions are seemingly divergent, a common intermediate of a phenylated protonated aci-nitro species, derived from the dication, is postulated to be involved in the reactions.Furthermore, the formation of benzoxazines and biphenylacetone oximes can be interpreted in terms of participation of novel chemical species with phenylethylene dication character derived from the common intermediate.
