Abstract: In this study, an efficient, rapid and simple plant-mediated green sol–gel auto-combustion procedure was presented to synthesis magnesium–cobalt ferrite (MgCoFe2O4) nanocatalyst using an aqueous extract of apple skins as a chelating/combustion agent. The catalyst was assessed by multiple techniques, including FT-IR, XRD, FE-SEM, EDS, elemental mapping, TGA-DTA and VSM. Then, the catalytic potential of the as-prepared MgCoFe2O4 nanocatalyst was examined in the three-component condensation reaction of 1,3-dimethyl barbituric acid, aldehydes and malononitrile for the one-pot synthesis of pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidinedione and their bis-derivatives. The obtained results indicated the...

Different aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes such as isobutyraldehyde, ethanal, n-propanal, n-butanal, n-hexanal, n-octanal, and substituted benzaldehydes were cyclotrimerized into their corresponding 2,4,6-trialkyl-1,3, 5-trioxanes in the presence of commercial bulk zinc oxide at room temperature under neat conditions within a short span of time with high yield and excellent selectivity. Liquid products were formed as a separate phase and were decanted easily, whereas solid products were isolated by simple extraction. Effect of different additives, mol % of catalyst, kind of substrate, and reaction temperature were examined on the progress of cyclotrimerization reaction  

A new one-pot synthesis of hitherto unknown polyheterocyclic systems via tandem C-alkylation and intramolecular O-alkylation of 4-hydroxycoumarin or 4-hydroxypyran-2-one with quinolinium salts in excellent yields (71-89%) is reported. The present approach provides a powerful route into polycyclic structures containing nitrogen and oxygen related to alkaloids  

We report a novel method of growing red luminescent (635 nm) Mn-doped CdS (CdS:Mn) nanoparticles capped by an inorganic shell of Mn(OH)2. CdSO4, Na2S2O3 and Mn(NO3)2 were used as the precursors, and thioglycerol (C3H8O2S) was employed as the capping agent and also the catalyst of the reaction. Using these materials resulted in very slow rate of the reaction and particles growth. The self-assembled one-pot process was performed at pH of 8 and Mn:Cd ratio of 10, and took about 10 days for completion. CdS:Mn nanoparticles are slowly formed in the first day of the process; however, the luminescence is weak. After 7 days, the solution turns white turbid through the formation of additional...

ZnO nanoparticles (NPs) and submicron aggregates (SMAs) were synthesized via a simple precipitation method by changing the amount of zinc acetate di-hydrate in absolute ethanol and synthesis time. Synthesized NPs and SMAs were characterized by FE-SEM, EDS, XRD, PL, and DRS and were used to fabricate dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The SMAs synthesized at moderate concentration (0.022 M) and with poly-dispersed distribution of the aggregates showed lower density of deep localized trap states as well as enhanced scattering features in comparison to NP-based electrode. As a result, power conversion efficiency (η) of about 2.56% with improved current density (Jsc) of 8.51 mA/cm2 were...
