Green synthesis of 3, 4-dihydropyrimidinones using Nano Fe3O4@meglumine sulfonic acid as a new efficient solid acid catalyst under microwave irradiation

Abstract EN

Design, synthesis and characterization of nano Fe3O4@meglumine sulfonic acid as a new solid acid catalyst for the simple and green one pot multicomponent synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrimi din-2(1H)-ones/thiones was studied.

New solid acid catalyst was prepared through a clean and simple protocol and characterized using FTIR, VSM, TGA, SEM, elemental analysis (CHN) and XRD techniques.

Heterogenization of homogeneous catalyst as a green approach is a useful method for enhancing the efficiency of catalyst.

Presented study was a new method for attachment of homogeneous highly soluble catalyst (meglumine sulfate) to the magnetite nanoparticle surfaces for preparing a heterogeneous and effective catalyst.

Obtained heterogeneous and reusable solid acid catalyst has high performance in the synthesis of Biginelli compounds.

The reaction was performed under microwave irradiation as a rapid and green condition.

Easy work up as well as excellent yield (90– 98%) of products in short reaction times (40–200 s) and reusable catalyst are the main advantages of presented procedure.

Reaction products were characterized in details using physical and chemical techniques such as melting point, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and FTIR.
