    Synthesis of in situ immobilized iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe3O4) on microcrystalline cellulose: Ecofriendly and recyclable catalyst for Michael addition
    (John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2021-09-21T00:00:00) Kumar, Bhupender; Reddy, Marri Sameer; Dwivedi, Kartikey Dhar; Dahiya, Amarjeet; Babu, J. Nagendra; Chowhan, L. Raju
    Microcrystalline cellulose-immobilized Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4@MCC) with iron loading 5%�20% are synthesized and characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The synthesized nanocomposites were studied for their catalytic activity towards Michael addition reaction by employing 1,3-cyclohexadione/dimedone and styrylisoxazole in an aqueous ethanolic medium. The catalyst with 15% iron loading showed the highest efficiency with an excellent yield. Michael addition reaction is one of the most important reaction for the creation of a carbon�carbon bond and widely used in organic synthesis under mild condition. The prepared catalyst performed well in Michael addition reaction and afforded the product in excellent yield. The products were isolated by simple filtration without use of any chromatographic techniques. The scale-up experiment on 10-mmol scale proved the sustainability of the methodology. The catalyst was recycled, and the recovered catalyst data showed no considerable depreciation in catalytic activity even after 5 consecutive cycles. The advantages of this green and safe procedure include a simple reaction set-up, very mild reaction conditions, high yields, moderate reaction time, recyclable catalyst, and easy separation of the products without use of any tedious separation techniques. � 2021 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Acetyl oxime/azirine 1, 3-dipole and strategy for the regioselective synthesis of polysubstituted pyrroles via [3 + 2] cycloaddition with alkyne utilizing Fe2O3@cellulose catalyst
    (Elsevier B.V., 2021-09-27T00:00:00) Dwivedi, Kartikey Dhar; Kumar, Bhupender; Reddy, Marri Sameer; Borah, Biplob; Nagendra Babu, J.; Chowhan, L. Raju
    Fe2O3@cellulose catalyzed regioselective [3 + 2] cycloaddition of acetyl oxime with alkynes via 2H?azirines intermediate generated in situ in an aqueous ethanolic medium is described. The methodology is highly regioselective for the synthesis of polysubstituted pyrroles in good yield. The products were isolated without using any column chromatography. The catalyst could be separated by using an external magnet and the recovered catalyst could be reused for four consecutive cycles with negligible loss in its catalytic activity. Broad functional group tolerance, mild reaction condition, easily accessible starting materials, utilization of green reaction medium, recyclability of the catalyst up to further reaction without affecting the outcome of the reaction, gram-scale synthesis are some of the salient features of this strategy. � 2021 The Author(s)
