1-Disulfo-[2,2-bipyridine]-1,1-diium chloride ionic liquid as an efficient catalyst for the green synthesis of 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles

A simple, green and efficient method has been developed for the synthesis of 5-substituted 1H-tetrazole derivatives through [2+3] cycloaddition reaction in good to excellent yields between various benzonitriles and sodium azide. For this purpose, 1-disulfo-[2,2-bipyridine]-1,1-diium chloride ([BiPy](HSO3)2Cl2) system as an ionic liquid catalyst have been extended for the construction of these valuable products. This procedure has significant advantages, including using ethylene glycol as a green solvent. The other advantages of this method are inexpensive and ease the preparation of the catalyst, mild reaction conditions, green reaction medium, easy workup, short reaction time, and simple experimental process.

An efficient Cu/functionalized graphene oxide catalyst for synthesis of 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles

The copper nanoparticles (Cu NPs) and amide functionalized graphene oxide (Cu-Amd-RGO) catalyst were prepared. This prepared catalyst (Cu-Amd-RGO) used for the synthesis of tetrazole derivatives. The catalyst (Cu-Amd-RGO) was characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD). The average particle size of Cu was found to be 7.6?nm. The Cu-Amd-RGO catalyst exhibited excellent catalytic activity and recyclability for synthesis of tetrazoles.

Novel Hybrid Thioamide Ligand Supported Copper Nanoparticles on SBA-15: A Copper Rich Robust Nanoreactor for Green Synthesis of Triazoles and Tetrazoles in Water Medium

Abstract: In this work, a new thioamide based ligand with reductive nature was designed for modification of mesoporous SBA-15. For this purpose, the channels of SBA-15 were modified with Tris(2-aminoethyl)amine (TAEA) groups and then reacted with S8 and phenyl acetylene to form thioamide groups via Willgerodt-Kindler reaction. This porous material proved to be an effective host for the immobilization of inexpensive Cu(II) ions. The catalytically active Cu(I) species were generated automatically due to the reductive nature of thioamide modified surface of catalyst without use of any toxic reducing agents. The well stabilized Cu(I) species into the nano-channels of SBA-15 were used for synthesis of various triazoles from sodium azide, phenyl acetylene and alkyl/benzyl halides or alkyl epoxides and various tetrazoles from sodium azide and aryl/alkyl nitriles under green mild aqueous reaction conditions. This catalytic system was used for 9 and 11 consecutive runs for synthesis of triazoles and tetrazoles, respectively. Graphic Abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

Synthesis of 5-Substituted 1 H-Tetrazoles from Nitriles by Continuous Flow: Application to the Synthesis of Valsartan

An efficient continuous flow process for the synthesis of 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles is described. The process involves the reaction between a polymer-supported triorganotin azide and organic nitriles. The polymer-supported organotin azide, which is in situ generated with a polystyrene-supported triorganotin alkoxide and trimethylsilylazide, is immobilized in a packed bed reactor. This approach is simple, fast (it takes from 7.5 to 15 min), and guarantees a low concentration of tin residues in the products (5 ppm). The process was developed to aryl-, heteroaryl-, and also alkylnitriles and was applied for the synthesis of valsartan, an angiotensin II receptor antagonist.

L -Proline: An Efficient Organocatalyst for the Synthesis of 5-Substituted 1 H -Tetrazoles via [3+2] Cycloaddition of Nitriles and Sodium Azide

A simple and efficient route for the synthesis of a series of 5-substituted 1 H -tetrazoles using l -proline as a catalyst from structurally diverse organic nitriles and sodium azide is reported. The prominent features of this environmentally benign, cost effective, and high-yielding l -proline-catalyzed protocol includes simple experimental procedure, short reaction time, simple workup, and excellent yields making it a safer and economical alternative to hazardous Lewis acid catalyzed methods. The protocol was successfully applied to a broad range of substrates, including aliphatic and aryl nitriles, organic thiocyanates, and cyanamides.

KIT-6-anchored sulfonic acid groups as a heterogeneous solid acid catalyst for the synthesis of aryl tetrazoles

In the current study, a simple, environmentally benign and cost-effective method is presented for the preparation of 5-substituted-1H-aryltetrazoles. To this goal, mesoporous KIT-6 silica anchored with sulfonic acid (–SO3H) groups via post-grafting modification was synthesized using the sol–gel method and characterized by XRD, TGA, FTIR, BET, TEM and SEM techniques. For the preparation of tetrazole derivatives, the effect of various parameters such as catalyst amount, aryl nitrile:azide ratio, temperature and reaction time was tested. The hybrid organic/inorganic catalyst could be recovered easily through a simple filtration and reused multiple times without significant loss in activity.

A simple, new and convenient metal free procedure for the synthesis of 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles using various nitriles and sodium azide in the presence of urea and acetic acid with good to high yields is developed. The reaction plausibly proceeds through in situ formation of urea azide active complex without toxic and/or expensive metal catalysts.

Cu(II) immobilized on Fe3O4@APTMS-DFX nanoparticles: An efficient catalyst for the synthesis of 5-substituted 1: H -tetrazoles with cytotoxic activity

Cu(ii) immobilized on deferasirox loaded amine functionalized magnetic nanoparticles (Cu(ii)/Fe3O4@APTMS-DFX) as a novel magnetically recyclable heterogeneous catalyst is able to catalyze the [3 + 2] cycloaddition reactions of various organic nitriles with sodium azide. Using this method, a series of 5-substituted-1H-tetrazoles under mild conditions in DMSO were prepared. The reaction involves mild reaction conditions with efficient transformation capability. The developed catalyst could be easily separated by applying an external magnetic field. Furthermore, it could be recycled for 5 runs with negligible leaching of copper from the surface of the catalyst. The catalyst was characterized by various techniques such as FT-IR, TGA, VSM, SEM-EDX, and ICP-OES. Several derivatives of 1H-tetrazoles were prepared using this catalyst, and their structures were confirmed using different techniques. Then, the synthesized anthraquinones were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against several cell lines including MCF-7, MAD-MD-231, HT-29, HeLa, neuro-2a and L-929. The results obtained from the MTT assay revealed that the 6 derivatives exhibited a high level of cytotoxicity. In order to determine the cytotoxicity mechanism, 2 derivatives with the highest cytotoxic activity were selected, and an apoptosis assay was carried out by flow cytometry, which supported that apoptosis is the major mechanism.

Developed method has notable advantages, such as simple and mild conditions, easy workup, reusability with consistent catalytic activity, and safer alternative to hazardous, corrosive conventional Lewis acid catalysts.

Magnetically separable Fe3O4@chitin as an eco-friendly nanocatalyst with high efficiency for green synthesis of 5-substituted-1H-tetrazoles under solvent-free conditions

The present study describes an efficient, eco-friendly and simple method for the synthesis of 5-substituted-1H-tetrazoles catalyzed by magnetite-chitin (Fe3O4@chitin) as a green and recyclable catalyst. Fe3O4@chitin was initially prepared using hydrothermal synthesis. Subsequently, the structure, morphology, and magnetic properties of the prepared nanocatalyst were studied with some different spectroscopic, microscopic and thermogravimetric techniques such as FT-IR, XRD, SEM, TEM, VSM and TGA. Obtained results showed that Fe3O4@chitin nanoparticles exhibited uniform cubic shape and were well monodispersed. Also, magnetic measurement revealed that the synthesized nanocatalyst had superparamagnetic features. The application of this new nanocatalyst allows the synthesis of a variety of tetrazoles through the reaction of nitriles with 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium azide ([bmim][N3]) under solvent-free conditions. This synthetic pathway is a green protocol offering significant advantages, such as excellent yield of products in short reaction times, mild reaction conditions, minimization of chemical waste, easy preparation of the catalyst and its recyclability up to six cycles without any considerable loss of efficiency.
