The synthesis of γ-Fe2O3@SiO2-L-histidine as a magnetic nanocatalyst for the preparation of new chromeno[1,6]naphthyridine derivatives
摘要
A nanomagnetic catalyst γ-Fe2O3@SiO2-linker-L-histidine was prepared and characterized by SEM, FT-IR, TGA, VSM, and EDX analyses. A convenient and facile method was reported for the pseudo-four-component reaction of malononitrile (2 mmol), aromatic aldehydes (1 mmol), 2′-hydroxyacetophenone derivatives (1 mmol) in the presence of γ-Fe2O3@SiO2-linker-L-histidine as a nonocatalyst in water as a green solvent. The desired chromeno[1,6]naphthyridines were efficiently formed in high yields and relatively shorter reaction times. The simple reaction, and easy work-up procedure are the advantages of this protocol. The γ-Fe2O3@SiO2-linker-L-histidine nanocatalyst was readily recovered by external magnetic field and can be reused at least five cycles without considerable loss in catalytic activity.
