Five novel heterogeneous mononuclear complex-anchored Ru(III) have been efficiently sono-synthesized and characterized by utilizing several analytical techniques. The assembled complexes could be utilized as effective, robust and recyclable (up to eight consecutive runs) catalysts for one-pot transformation of a vast array of nitriles and aldehydes to primary amides in H2O under aerobic conditions. Moreover, some unreported di- and tetra-amide derivatives were obtained also under the optimal conditions. The results of ICP/OES analysis demonstrated that there is no detected leaching of the recycled catalyst, which suggests the real heterogeneity of the present protocol. The present Ru-complexes exhibited superiority compared to other reported catalysts for amide preparation in terms of low catalyst load, short reaction time, low operating temperature, no hazardous additives required, and high values of TON (990) and TOF (1980 h11).

The hydration of nitriles to amides in a water extract of pomelo peel ash (WEPPA) was realized with moderate to excellent yields without using external transition metals, bases or organic solvents. This reaction features a broad substrate scope, wide functional group tolerance, prominent chemoselectivity, and good reusability. Notably, a magnification experiment in this bio-based solvent at 100 mmol further demonstrated its practicability.
