This study investigates the development of a novel and environmentally friendly catalyst, FeO@chitosan@NiB nanocomposite, for multicomponent reactions (MCRs). Chitosan (CS), a biopolymer, is used because it is biocompatible, abundant, and has functional groups that can be complexed with metals. Nickel boride (NiB) is used in hydrogenation reactions due to its catalytic properties. The magnetic properties of FeO nanoparticles enable easy separation. Herein, we describe the successful synthesis of the FeO@CS@NiB nanocomposite and its use in MCRs for the green synthesis of tetrahydrobenzo[]pyran derivatives. These heterocyclic compounds impress with their diverse biological activities. The research has several advantages, including the implementation of environmentally friendly catalyst protocols, the simplification and cost-effectiveness of the synthesis process, the use of an easily accessible biopolymer, the successful performance of efficient one-pot reactions without additional waste generation, and the easy recycling of the catalyst. This research demonstrates the potential of FeO@CS@NiB as a promising catalyst for sustainable and selective MCRs.
本研究探索了一种新型环保催化剂FeO@壳聚糖@NiB纳米复合材料在多组分反应(MCRs)中的应用。壳聚糖(CS)作为一种生物聚合物,因其具有生物相容性、资源丰富且含有可与金属络合的官能团而被采用。硼化镍(NiB)因其催化性能而用于氢化反应。FeO纳米颗粒的磁性便于分离。在此,我们描述了FeO@CS@NiB纳米复合材料的成功合成及其在MCRs中用于绿色合成四氢苯并[]吡喃衍生物的应用。这些杂环化合物因其多样的生物活性而令人关注。该研究具有诸多优势,包括采用环保型催化剂方案、合成过程简化且具有成本效益、使用易于获取的生物聚合物、成功进行高效一锅法反应且无额外废弃物产生以及催化剂易于回收利用。本研究证明了FeO@CS@NiB作为可持续且选择性MCRs的有前景催化剂的潜力。
