Synthesis and characterization of amino glucose-functionalized silica-coated NiFe2O4 nanoparticles: A heterogeneous, new and magnetically separable catalyst for the solvent-free synthesis of 2,4,5–trisubstituted imidazoles, benzo[d]imidazoles, benzo[d] oxazoles and azo-linked benzo[d]oxazoles

Amino glucose-functionalized silica-coated NiFe2O4 nanoparticles (NiFe2O4@SiO2@amino glucose) were chemically synthesized and characterized by transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), Zetasizer and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) instruments. NiFe2O4@SiO2@amino glucose supply an environmentally friendly procedure for the synthesis of 2,4,5-trisubstituted imidazoles through one-pot multicomponent condensation of benzil or benzoin, ammonium acetate with aryl aldehydes and for the synthesis of benzoxazoles using condensation reaction of 2-aminophenol with aryl aldehydes under solvent free condition. In the other study, this synthesized magnetically reusable catalyst was introduced as a new avenue for the synthesis of benzo[d]imidazoles using the reaction between aryl aldehydes and 1,2-diaminobenzene. These compounds were obtained in high yields and short reaction times. The catalyst could be easily recovered and reused for five cycles with almost consistent activity. Synthesized compounds were characterized by their physical constant, comparison with authentic samples, FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis.

Water extract of onion catalyst: An economical green route for the synthesis of 2-substituted and 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazole derivatives with high selectivity

An efficient, environmental friendly and substrate controlled method of synthesis of 2-substituted benzimidazole derivatives 3 and 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazole derivatives 4 with high selectivity has been achieved from the reaction of o-phenylenediamine 1 and aldehydes 2 in the presence of water extract of onion and selecting suitable reaction medium. This method is widely applicable for variety of aldehydes such as aromatic/aliphatic/heterocyclic aldehydes and 1,2-diamines to afford 2-substituted benzimidazole derivatives 3 and 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazole derivatives 4 in good to excellent yields (up to 96%). The developed method of water extract of onion catalysis produced 2-substituted benzimidazoles 3 from aromatic aldehydes having electron-withdrawing groups, whereas aromatic aldehydes bearing electron donating groups selectively furnished 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazole 4 derivatives. The process described here has several advantages of cheap, low energy consumption, commercially available starting materials, operational simplicity and nontoxic catalyst. The use of water extract of onion makes this present methodology green and giving a useful contribution to the existing methods available for the preparation of benzimidazole derivatives. In addition, Hammett correlation of substituent constant (σ) vs percentage (%) yield has been established.

Ligand-tuned cobalt-containing coordination polymers and applications in water

Ligands play a key role in modern catalysis research and occasionally determine whether a reaction will take place under specific conditions, such as in water. In this experiment, ligands containing an indole-based diacid moiety were employed to prepare the corresponding cobalt coordination polymer material (Co-CIA) and porous oval polymer material (Co-NCIA). Interestingly, it was observed that Co-CIA could promote the alkylation of ketones with alcohols and alcohols with alcohols, while Co-NCIA was effective for the synthesis of 1-benzyl-2-aryl-1H-benzo[d]imidazoles from various phenylenediamine and benzyl alcohols through borrowing hydrogen and dehydrogenation strategies. Other mechanism explorations, such as deuterium labeling experiments and a kinetics study, were conducted to better understand Co-CIA and Co-NCIA systems and the related transformations. Our studies provided an efficient method for the development of highly active cobalt coordination polymer materials with excellent recovery performance for dehydrogenation and borrowing hydrogen reactions under water and base-free conditions.

A Zirconium Indazole Carboxylate Coordination Polymer as an Efficient Catalyst for Dehydrogenation-Cyclization and Oxidative Coupling Reactions

Rational ligand design is crucial for achieving widespread applications of coordination polymers. The preparation, structural characterisation, and catalytic applications of zirconium (IV) coordination polymer (Zr-IDA), which was derived from 1-(carboxymethyl)-1H-indazole-5-carboxylic acid are reported. The Zr-IDA catalyst contains porous and highly crystalline particles with a quasi-spherical morphology around 100 nm in size, and Zr was coordinated with both O and N as shown by FT-IR and XPS measurements. Importantly, the Zr-IDA catalyst shows great activity, selectivity and stability in the oxidative coupling of benzyl cyanides with tert-butyl hydroperoxide to afford tert-butyl peresters, and the dehydrogenation cyclization of o-phenylenediamines with aromatic alcohols to afford 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazole derivatives. Mechanistic investigations were carried out to study these reactions and the developed catalytic system in more detail.

Mesoporous silica supported ytterbium as catalyst for synthesis of 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazoles and 2-substituted benzimidazoles

The benzimidazole ring is an important pharmacophore in contemporary drug discovery. Thus, effort to identifying new compounds containing benzimidazole scaffolds have gained much attention in recent years. In the present study, MCM-41 type mesoporous silica with large pore (l-MSN) supported ytterbium was successfully prepared by wet impregnation method. Among rare earth metal salts, ytterbium triflate has already been widely investigated as a catalyst in organic synthesis but less toxic ytterbium oxide has yet to be explored. Relatively high abundance and low cost of ytterbium with respect to many catalytically active metals (e.g. Pd, Au, Ru, Ir, Pt) offer an opportunity to develop sustainable catalysts for organic conversions. The catalyst has been characterized by various techniques including nitrogen adsorption, FT-IR, TEM, SEM, EDX technique and elemental mapping. The obtained materials exhibit high surface area and a narrow distribution of mesoporosity. The catalytic performance of the Yb@l–MSNs was tested by synthesis of 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazoles and 2-substituted benzimidazoles through the coupling of aldehydes with o-phenylenediamine. The catalyst resulted in excellent yields in short reaction times and the reaction showed tolerance toward both electron-donating and electron-withdrawing functional groups at room temperature. A particularly interesting finding was the solvent selectivity of this reaction; namely, 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazoles generated as major product in water-ethanol, while the 2-substituted benzimidazoles was generated exclusively in non-polar solvents like toluene.
