The green synthesis of nanocomposites has attracted huge consideration in recent years due to its positive environmentally friendly impact. The present study reports the first bimetallic Ag-Au cellulose nanofiber composite (Ag@Au/CNCs) prepared via a very simple green preparation method. An aqueous leaves extract of Moringa oleifera was used to obtain the bimetallic Ag@Au/CNC nanocomposite. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) observations revealed the successful formation of triangle, hexagonal, and spherical shapes of well-combined Ag-Au nanoparticles on the regenerated cellulose nanofiber surface. Further, the formation of Au-Ag bimetallic nanostructures was confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray crystallography (XRD) results. The resultant bimetallic Ag@Au/CNC catalyst was found to perform remarkably well in the reduction of nitrophenols. The bimetallic Ag@Au/CNC catalyst gave excellent kapp values of 15.59 and 22.83 × 10-3 s-1 for the 2- A nd 4-nitrophenol reduction process, respectively. To our delight, the Ag@Au/CNC catalyst was found to perform well in the aza-Michael reaction. The catalytic activity of Ag@Au/CNCs was compared with mono-metallic Ag/CNCs, Au/CNCs, and other reported catalysts. Based on the results obtained, the high synergy of Ag@Au/CNCs was explained. A possible mechanism is proposed for the Ag@Au/CNC-catalyzed nitrophenol reduction and aza-Michael reactions.

A novel method for effecting the aza-Michael reactions of N-alkyl- and N-arylpiperazines with acrylonitrile using Cu-nanoparticles is described. The method features the use of 10 mol % Cu (14-17 nm) nanoparticles under mild reaction conditions to afford the addition products in good to excellent yields. The Cu-nanoparticles selectively catalysed the aza-Michael reaction of N-alkyl- and N-arylpiperazines in the presence of aromatic amino or aliphatic hydroxy groups.

A facile and simple protocol for the [3+2] cycloaddition of alkyl nitriles (RCN) with sodium azide (NaN3) in the presence of copper bis(diacetylcurcumin) 1,2-diamin-obenzene Schiff base complex, SiO2-[Cu-BDACDABSBC] as a heterogeneous catalyst in the presence of ascorbic acid and a solution of water/i-PrOH (50:50, V/V) media at reflux condition is described. The supported catalyst was prepared by immobilization of a copper bis(diacetylcurcumin) 1,2-diaminobenzene Schiff base complex [Cu-BDACDABSBC] on silica gel. The complex has high selectivity, catalytic activity, and recyclability. The significant features of this procedure are high yields, broad substrate scope and simple and efficient work-up procedure. According to this synthetic methodology, excellent yields of 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles having bioactive N-heterocyclic cores were synthesized. The in vitro antifungal activities of title compounds were screened against various pathogenic fungal strains, such as Candida species involving C. albicans, C. glabrata, C. krusei, C. parapsilosis as well as filamentous fungi like Aspergillus species consisting of A. fumigatus and A. flavus. The molecular docking analysis is discussed for one most potent compound against fungi. The docking study determined a remarkable interaction between the most potent compounds and the active site of Mycobacterium P450DM.

Cu-containing activated carbon (eco-catalyst, Cu/HMPC, where 'C' defines 'carbon') was derived from a metal-hyperaccumulating mustard plant (HMP) by a simple chemical activation method. Transmission electron microscopy/selected area diffraction (HRTEM/SAED) results revealed that the Cu/HMPC has mainly three types of morphology [sheet-like morphology (2D), hollow-spheres (3D) and needle-like structures (1D)] which are interconnected. HRTEM-SAED, Raman and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results confirmed the existence of Cu oxide species in Cu/HMPC. Content of Cu in Cu/HMPC was determined to be 1.03 wt%. The quality of graphitization in Cu/HMPC was discussed by using Raman and XRD results. The BET surface area of Cu/HMPC was determined to be 620.8 m2 g-1. The Cu/HMPC actively transformed a wide range of amines to imines under very mild reaction conditions. The catalyst Cu/HMPC gave products in excellent yields (98-61%) with very high TON/TOF values (1512/339-833/35 h-1). To the best of our knowledge, this is the most efficient Cu-based heterogeneous eco-catalyst for the synthesis of imines among those reported to date. The Cu can be recovered from used Cu/HMPC by a simple HCl treatment. Versatility, heterogeneity and reusability of Cu/HMPC were tested. A possible mechanism has been proposed.

Employing DABCO as a substrate, aryl(mesityl)iodonium triflates are introduced as arylating agents for a tertiary sp3-nitrogen. Mild conditions and exceptional selectivity of the aryl group transfer allow unprecedented N-aryl-DABCO salts to be obtained, bearing substituents of different electronic natures. This metal-free methodology has no analogy among known transition-metal-based reactions. The utility of isolated N-aryl-DABCO salts is demonstrated for the preparation of flibanserin.

A facile and highly efficient protocol for synthesis of new 5-substituted-1H-tetrazoles derivatives using copper-doped silica cuprous sulfate (CDSCS) is described. In this method, the cycloaddition reaction of sodium azide with structurally diverse nitriles involving bioactive N-heterocyclic cores exploiting CDSCS in refluxing H2O/i-PrOH (1:1, v/v) furnishes the corresponding 5-substituted-1H-tetrazoles in good to excellent yields (up to 93percent). The influence of parameters effective in progress of reaction including solvent type, temperature and catalyst was studied and discussed. In this protocol, CDSCS was proved to be an efficient heterogeneous nano-catalyst to easily achieve the new tetrazole derivatives. The advantages of CDSCS in current protocol known are its cheapness, thermal and chemical stability, ease of recyclability and reusability for several consecutive runs without significant decline in its reactivity.

A series of new 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles bearing bioactive N-heterocyclic cores were synthesized through [3 + 2] cycloaddition reactions between alkyl nitriles (RCN) and NaN3in the presence of Cu/aminoclay/reduced graphene oxide nanohybrid (Cu/AC/r-GO nanohybrid) as a heterogeneous nanocatalyst in water/i-PrOH (50:50, V/V) media at reflux condition. The influence of factors on a sample reaction including solvent type, temperature, and catalyst amount was discussed. This current protocol has many advantages including inexpensiveness, environmentally benign, broad substrate scope, excellent yields, and easy work-up procedure. The Cu/AC/r-GO used in this protocol is a low-cost catalyst that proved to have considerable chemical and thermal stabilities. This non-hygroscopic catalyst can be easily recycled, reused, and stored for many consecutive reaction runs without significant loss in its reactivity.

A new, highly efficient, inexpensive, recyclable, mild, convenient, and green protocol for chemoselective aza/thia-Michael addition reactions of amines/thiols to α,β-unsaturated compounds using triethylammonium acetate (TEAA) ionic liquid was developed. The catalyst can be recycled ten times and obviate the need for toxic and expensive catalysts.
