A special composite of the cerium-based metal-organic framework (Ce-UiO-66) modified with graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets (g-C3N4) has been synthesized. In order to make a comparison, a series of composites comprising g-C3N4and Ce-MOF were synthesized as well. Their structural features were investigated using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), sorption of nitrogen (BET and BJH), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF) and diffuse reflectance UV-Vis spectroscopy (UV-Vis DRS) and electron spin resonance (ESR) techniques. According to the obtained results, it was found that nanosheets of mesoporous g-C3N4act as linkers between the cerium sites, playing a critical role in the formation of composites. In fact, the embedded g-C3N4nanoparticles in the Ce-MOF cause a new kind of meso-porosity. Moreover, the coordination of nitrogen atoms in the graphitic carbon nitride structure to cerium atoms of the crystal brings about substantial changes in the optical properties, increasing the photoreactivity. On the other hand, since there is a physical contact between Ce-UiO-66 and g-C3N4in the composite, the unaltered pore volume and optical properties lead to the formation of a physical mixture rather than a composite. The g-C3N4@Ce-MOF as a photocatalyst was employed in photocatalytic aerobic oxidative Hantzsch pyridine synthesis of styrene and indicated high performance under visible light. The stability and reusability of g-C3N4@Ce-MOF were also examined and showed high efficiency up to the 5th run. Besides, the PXRD and FT-IR analyses taken from the retrieved g-C3N4@Ce-MOF nanocomposite confirmed the catalyst stability after the completion of the cascade aerobic oxidative reaction. Despite the photocatalytic performance, the synergistic effect of open metal sites in the MOF as Lewis acid and nitrogen in g-C3N4have greatly improved the efficiency of the catalyst. Moreover, the study of the reaction mechanism using ESR indicates the positive effect of composite formation on the performance of the photocatalytic aerobic oxidation reaction by the superoxide radical (O2˙—), as a selective oxidant species.

Abstract: In the present investigation, magnetic ferrite nanoparticles (ferrite NPs) were synthesized and coated with silica (ferrite?SiO2NPs) by using the sol-gel method. After that, silica propylmethylimidazolium chloride ionic liquid [Sipmim]Cl was prepared and linked with the above-prepared ferrite?SiO2NPs to synthesize ferrite silica propylmethylimidazolium chloride [Fesipmim]Cl catalyst. The formation of [Fesipmim]Cl catalyst was confirmed by Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy analysis. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed the structure of ferrite NPs and ferrite?SiO2 NPs. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) evidenced the successful formation of ferrite NPs and ferrite?SiO2 NPs. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) results revealed the change in morphology of ferrite NPs, ferrite?SiO2NPs and [Fesipmim]Cl. The magnetic properties of [Fesipmim]Cl catalyst were measured by vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The efficiency of the [Fesipmim]Cl catalyst was checked by using it for the synthesis of different derivatives of dihydropyridine through Hantzsch reaction via a three-component coupling reaction of substituted benzaldehydes, ethyl/ methyl acetoacetate and ammonium acetate. The formation and structures of all the synthesized compounds were confirmed by FT-IR, 1HNMR, 13C NMR spectral analyses. The reusability of the catalyst [Fesipmim]Cl was checked up to seven cycles and found to have excellent activity up to five cycles. Graphic abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.].

A straightforward and efficient methodology for the one-pot multicomponent synthesis of 1,4-dihydropyridine has been developed using MIL-101-SO3H metal-organic framework as a solid Br?nsted acid. The presence of the uniformly distributed Br?nsted acidic sulfonic acid sites throughout the framework and the high stability bestow the catalyst with excellent reactivity towards the synthesis of 1,4-dihydropyridine under simple reaction conditions using renewable ethanol as the solvent. The present methodology tolerates various functional groups and allows the synthesis of 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives in good to excellent yields through Hantzsch reaction. The developed methodology proceeds under mild conditions, avoids corrosive reagents and special reaction conditions, and is amenable to gram scale synthesis. The sustainable nature of the catalyst was proved by the easy recovery and the reusability of the catalyst, as it was reused several times without loss in activity, which was confirmed from the FTIR, PXRD and SEM analyses of the reused catalyst.
