Salen complex of Cu(II) supported on superparamagnetic Fe3O 4@SiO2 nanoparticles: An efficient and recyclable catalyst for synthesis of 1- and 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles

An efficient and general method has been developed for synthesis of 1- and 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles from nitriles and amines using magnetite nanoparticles immobilized Salen Cu(II) as an efficient and recyclable catalyst. The structural and magnetic properties of functionalized magnetic silica are identified by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) instruments. NMR, FT-IR, elemental analysis and XRD were also used for identification of these structures. Nanocatalyst can be easily recovered by a magnetic field and reused for subsequent reactions for at least 7 times with less deterioration in catalytic activity.

One-pot synthesis of 1- and 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles using 1,4-dihydroxyanthraquinone–copper(II) supported on superparamagnetic Fe3O4@SiO2 magnetic porous nanospheres as a recyclable catalyst

An effective one-pot, convenient process for the synthesis of 1- and 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles from nitriles and amines is described using1,4-dihydroxyanthraquinone–copper(II) supported on Fe3O4@SiO2 magnetic porous nanospheres as a novel recyclable catalyst. The application of this catalyst allows the synthesis of a variety of tetrazoles in good to excellent yields. The preparation of the magnetic nanocatalyst with core–shell structure is presented by using nano-Fe3O4 as the core, tetraethoxysilane as the silica source and poly(vinyl alcohol) as the surfactant, and then Fe3O4@SiO2 was coated with 1,4-dihydroxyanthraquinone–copper(II) nanoparticles. The new catalyst was characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering, thermogravimetric analysis, vibration sample magnetometry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, nitrogen adsorption–desorption isotherm analysis and inductively coupled plasma analysis. This new procedure offers several advantages such as short reaction times, excellent yields, operational simplicity, practicability and applicability to various substrates and absence of any tedious workup or purification. In addition, the excellent catalytic performance, thermal stability and separation of the catalyst make it a good heterogeneous system and a useful alternative to other heterogeneous catalysts. Also, the catalyst could be magnetically separated and reused six times without significant loss of catalytic activity. Copyright

Copper coordinated-poly(α-amino acid) decorated on magnetite graphene oxide as an efficient heterogeneous magnetically recoverable catalyst for the selective synthesis of 5- and 1-substituted tetrazoles from various sources: A comparative study

In this work, poly(α-amino acid)-Cu(II) complex immobilized on magnetite graphene oxide (GO/Fe3O4?PAA-Cu-complex) was prepared via a multistep synthesis and employed as an efficient, heterogeneous, magnetically recyclable nanocatalyst for one-pot, three component synthesis of 5- and 1-substituted tetrazoles using different substrates including benzaldehydes, benzonitriles, and anilines in mild conditions. The different approaches were mechanically investigated and compared. The catalyst was fully characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), inductively coupled plasma (ICP), FE-SEM and TEM analyses. The magnetic nanocatalyst could be readily separated from the reaction mixture by an external magnet and reused for several times without significant loss of catalytic activity. Also, the spectroscopic analysis revealed the stability and durability of the catalyst. Finally, the chemoselectivity of the method was investigated by the various combinations of aldehyde, nitrile, and oxime.

One pot three component solvent free synthesis of N-substituted tetrazoles using RuO2 /MMT catalyst

A facile, one-pot three component catalytic method is developed for the synthesis of N-substituted tetrazole using RuO2/MMT nanocomposite. It is characterized with low and wide angle XRD which suggests that RuO2 nanoparticles are evenly dispersed on the surface of MMT while FESEM images indicate a spherical morphology having size in the range of 40-50 nm. The catalytic efficiency is evaluated for three component one-pot synthesis of the tetrazole using various amine, sodium azide and triethyl-ortho-formate under solvent free condition. This strategy has resulted in good to excellent yields (84 – 97percent) of N-substituted tetrazoles within moderate reaction time. Moreover, the catalyst possesses excellent reusability up to five cycles with only 5percent decrease in the yield of tetrazole after 5th cycle. The beneficial catalytic activity of the bifunctional nanocomposite is attributed to the uniformly dispersed RuO2 nanoparticles on the surface of MMT where RuO2 site is responsible for coordination of isocyanide intermediate while strong acidic character of MMT induces condensation and cyclization steps in a synergic manner. Thus, it can be argued that RuO2/MMT nanocomposite possesses potential applications for Multi Component Reactions (MCR) in terms of efficient and sustainable manner.

Facile synthesis of 1- and 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles catalyzed by recyclable ligand complex of copper(II) supported on superparamagnetic Fe 3O4@SiO2 nanoparticles

We report a new method for preparing functionalized superparamagnetic Fe3O4@SiO2 possessing high saturation magnetization. Magnetite particles were prepared by simple co-precipitation method in aqueous medium, and then Fe3O4@SiO2 nanosphere was synthesized by using nano Fe3O4 as the core, TEOS as the silica source and polyethylene glycol (PEG 1000) as the surfactant. Then, the silica-coated Fe3O4 nanoparticles were covered with ligand complex of Cu(II). The functionalized magnetic core-shell nanoparticles (MNPs) were investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, dynamic light scattering and N2 adsorption/desorption. Also, its Cu content was determined by inductively coupled plasma (ICP) analyzer. Then, the immobilized copper complex was used as an efficient catalyst for synthesis of 1- and 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles from nitriles and amines in good to excellent yields. The results show that the supported catalyst could be conveniently recovered through the use of an external magnetic field and reused for subsequent reactions for at least 6 times with less deterioration in catalytic activity.

Today, most synthetic methods are aimed at carrying out reactions under more efficient conditions and the realization of the twelve principles of green chemistry. Due to the importance and widespread applications of tetrazoles in various industries, especially in the field of pharmaceutical chemistry, and the expansion of the use of nanocatalysts in the preparation of valuable chemical reaction products, we decided to use an (Fe3O4@NFC@NSalophCu)CO2H nanocatalyst in this project. In this study, the synthesis of the nanocatalyst (Fe3O4@NFC@NSalophCu)CO2H was explained in a step-by-step manner. Confirmation of the structure was obtained based on FT-IR, EDX, FE-SEM, TEM, XRD, VSM, DLS, TGA, H-NMR, and CHNO analyses. The catalyst was applied to the synthesis of 5-substituted-1H-tetrazole and 1-substituted-1H-tetrazole derivatives through multi-component reactions (MCRs), and the performance was assessed. With advances in science and technology and increasing environmental pollution, the use of reagents and methods that are less dangerous for the environment has received much attention. Therefore, following green chemistry principles, with the help of the (Fe3O4@NFC@NSalophCu)CO2H salen complex as a nanocatalyst that is recyclable, cheap, safe, and available, the use of water as a green solvent, and reduced reaction times, the synthesis of tetrazoles can be achieved.

Removal of the Cd(II), Ni(II), and Pb(II) ions via their complexation with the uric acid-based adsorbent and use of the corresponding Cd-complex for the synthesis of tetrazoles

The magnetic supported uric acid-based compound (Fe3O4@SiO2@CPTMS@UA) was prepared, characterized and used as a capable adsorbent for removal of the Cd(II), Ni(II) and Pb(II) ions from aqueous solution. The Freundlich and Langmuir adsorption isotherms have been used to evaluate the adsorption behaviors. The high correlation coefficient of the Langmuir model (R+2 > 0.99) reveals that the Langmuir model offers the better coordination with the experimental results and so the model of adsorption of Cd2+, Ni2+, and Pb2+ on the adsorbent is more compatible with the Langmuir model, and the maximum adsorption capacity for the Cd, Ni, and Pb ions are about 285.7, 45.06 and 145.09 mg/g. Then, the corresponding Cd-complex (Fe3O4@SiO2@CPTMS@ UA@Cd) was also prepared, characterized and applied as an efficient heterogeneous nano-catalyst for the synthesis of diverse tetrazoles.
