A powerful and convenient reaction procedure for the C-N coupling reaction (the Buchwald-Hartwig reaction), yielding products of N-arylanilines and N-arylamines in both conventional heating and microwave irradiation has been reported. The protocol utilizes a stable and new supper ferromagnetic nanoparticle chelating N-heterocyclic dicarbene palladium(II) complex (Pd-NHC) as catalyst which helps/allows us to complete the reaction with only 0.002 mol% Pd producing high yield products. We also examined the reusability of the catalyst. It was found that the catalyst could be recovered by external magnetic field and reused for seven times without obvious loss in catalytic activity.
Electrochemical Stability of Stainless Steels-Made Alkaline Water Electrolysi...Tohoku University
Developing highly active and durable electrocatalysts for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) have been needed for efficient hydrogen production by alkaline water electrolysis (AWE). Austenitic stainless steels (SS) have attracted attentions as the alternative anode materials to Ni-based electrodes (1, 2). We recently demonstrated that NiFe hydroxide/oxide hetero nanostructures that synthesized through the constant current density electrolysis of 316SS (NiFe-HyOx/SS) show high OER activity and stability under constant current operation conditions (3). However, the electrochemical stability and OER overpotentials of the surface catalyst layers generated on the stainless steel under potential fluctuation is still not clear. In this study, we investigated changes in OER overpotentials of the NiFe-HyOx/SS anode during applying potential cycles (PCs) of 0.5 and 1.8 V vs. reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE) and discussed the structural changes.

catalyst for the oxidative cyanation of tertiary amines to the
corresponding a-aminonitriles in high to excellent yields, using
molecular oxygen as an oxidant and sodiumcyanide in acetic acid as a

N-Heterocyclic Carbene Catalyzed Photoenolization/Diels–Alder
Reaction of Acid Fluorides
Andreas Mavroskoufis, Keerthana Rajes, Paul Golz, Arush Agrawal, Vincent Ruß, Jan P. Gçtze,
and Matthew N. Hopkinson*
Dedicated to Prof. Dr. Hans-Ulrich Reißig on the occasion of his 70th birthday
Abstract: The combination of light activation and N-hetero-
cyclic carbene (NHC) organocatalysis has enabled the use of
acid fluorides as substrates in a UVA-light-mediated photo-
chemical transformation previously observed only with aro-
matic aldehydes and ketones. Stoichiometric studies and TD-
DFT calculations support a mechanism involving the photo-
activation of an ortho-toluoyl azolium intermediate, which
exhibits “ketone-like” photochemical reactivity under UVA
irradiation. Using this photo-NHC catalysis approach, a novel
photoenolization/Diels–Alder (PEDA) process was developed
that leads to diverse isochroman-1-one derivatives.
Recent years have seen a resurgence of interest in photo-
chemical activation as a means of accessing new reactivity
modes in organic synthesis. In contrast to thermally activated
processes, photochemical reactions proceed via excited-state
species and duly exhibit dramatically different reactivity and
selectivity. Reactions involving the activation of aromatic
aldehydes and ketones with UVA light are among the most
widely studied photochemical transformations. Upon excita-
tion, the biradical-like (n,p*) states of these compounds
undergo a range of synthetically important processes, such as
Norrish fragmentations, Yang cyclizations, and Paternm–
Bgchi cycloadditions.[1] While such reactions are well estab-
lished for aldehydes and ketones, analogous transformations
with substrates at the carboxylic acid oxidation level are
scarce. These compounds typically absorb light at shorter
wavelengths than the corresponding ketones while many
populate lowest-energy (p,p*) excited states with inherently
different photochemical reactivity.[2, 3]
Inspired by the recent successes achieved by combining
light activation with other catalysis modes,[4, 5] we wondered
whether the scope of carbonyl photochemistry could be
expanded by merging light activation with N-heterocyclic
carbene (NHC) organocatalysis.[6] An overview of our
proposed photo-NHC catalysis concept is shown in
Scheme 1. As demonstrated in several elegant processes,
NHCs can react with activated aryl carboxylic acid derivatives
to afford benzoyl azolium intermediates. These species are
formally ketones and could be expected to populate excited
states comparable to those of structurally related benzophe-
none derivatives upon light irradiation. Furthermore, in
providing a second aromatic system for p-conjugation, the
NHC can influence the absorption characteristics of the
carbonyl function, enabling excitation at longer wavelengths
compared with the parent carboxyl ...

Synthesis, spectroscopic, magnetic properties and superoxide dismutase (SOD) ...IOSR Journals
Three new ternary copper(II) complexes formulated as [Cu(HIda)(bipy)] 1; [Cu(HIda)(phen)] 2; [Cu(HIda)(dmp)] 3; where HIda =N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-2- iminodiacetic acid ; bipy = 2, 2’- bipyridine; phen = 1,10- phenanthroline; dmp = 2,9-dimethyl 1,10-phenanthroline, have been synthesized and characterized by partial elemental analysis, FAB-mass (m/z), EPR, UV-visible and CV measurements. The magnetic and spectroscopic data of all these complexes 1-3 indicate distorted octahedral geometry. The EPR spectra of these complexes in frozen DMSO solutions showed a single at g ca. 2. The trend in g-value (g||>g>2.0023) suggests that the unpaired electron on copper (II) has dx2–y2 character. The SOD activities of the complexes have been investigated. Antibacterial and antifungal activity of these complexes were also measured and discussed.
Metal-organic hybrid: Photoreduction of CO2 using graphitic carbon nitride su...Pawan Kumar
A novel heteroleptic iridium complex supported on graphitic carbon nitride was synthesized and used for photoreduction of carbon dioxide under visible light irradiation. The methanol yield obtained after 24 h irradiation was 9934 μmol g−1cat (TON 1241 with respect to Ir) by using triethylamine (TEA) as a sacrificial donor, which was significantly higher as compared to the semiconductor carbon nitride 145 μmol g−1cat under identical conditions. The presence of triethylamine was found to be vital for the higher methanol yield. After the reaction, the photocatalyst could easily be recovered and reused for subsequent six runs without significant loss in photo activity.

Palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes containing the mixed ligands tertiary
diphosphinesdppm. dppp and dppf with Thioester ligand S-1H benzo[d] imidazole-2-yl benzothioate
(HSBIBT) have been prepared by the reaction of PdCl2 and PtCl2 with one equiv of tertiary
diphosphines ligands to form [Pd(k2-dppf)Cl2], [Pd(k2-dppp)Cl2] and [Pt(k2-dppmCl)Cl2] complexes
and then add the ligand HSBIBT to these complexes to form mixed ligand complexes. The prepared
complexes have been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, magnetic
susceptibility, molar conductance, IR spectral data and UV-Visible. The results suggested that the
ligand HSBIBT bonded to the metal through N atom and square planner geometries were assigned
for the complexes.
Reaction of aniline with ammonium persulphate and concentrated hydrochloric a...Maciej Przybyłek
In this paper, the reaction of aniline with ammonium persulphate and concentrated HCl was studied. As a result of our experimental studies, 2,4,6-trichlorophenylamine was identified as the main product. This shows that a high concentration of HCl does not favour oxidative polymerisation of phenylamine, even though the ammonium persulphate/HCl system is widely used in polyaniline synthesis. On the basis of the experimental data and density functional theory for reaction path modelling, we proposed a mechanism for oxidative chlorination of aniline. We assumed that this reaction proceeded in three cyclically repeated steps; protonation of aniline, formation of singlet ground state phenylnitrenium cation, and nucleophilic substitution. In order to confirm this mechanism, kinetic, thermochemical, and natural bond orbital population analyses were performed.

Abstract:The ability of high-energy ionizing radiation has been demonstrated for environmental remediation processing. γ-rayswere applied to treat a solution of 2-mercaptobenzothiazole (2-MBT). 2-MBT (125 µM) was decomposed and mineralized by the γ-radiation. The absorbed doses for 50 and 90% 2-MBT degradation were 0.170 and 0.650 kGy, respectively. Organic by-products were almost fully mineralized when high-absorbed doses in the range of 5-60 kGy were applied. Sulfate radicals (SO4 ●– ) produced through the rapid reaction of persulfate ions (S2O8 2– ) with hydrated electrons(eaq − ; keaq − /S2O8 2– = 1.1 × 1010 M −1 .s−1 ) had a significant effect on the 2-MBT mineralization yield. Because of 2-MBT decomposition,sulfate ions (SO4 2− ) were formed, and thepH and dissolved oxygen concentration were decreased. The degradation efficiency decreased when HCO3 –was added to the 2- MBT solution. No significant effects of NO3 – and Cl– ions on 2-MBT radiolytic eliminationwere observed
The project will focus on synthesis of hexagonal structured pure phases of compositions: BaM1/3Ti2/3O3-δ and BaM1/6Ti5/6O3-δ, where M= Sc, In and Fe via different methods such as Solid state sintering and wet chemical route. The ultimate goal is to finding structure – functionality relationships within these proton and mixed conducting systems. A substantial effort will focus on search for and fabrication of new materials although the main part of the work will concentrate on detailed structural characterisation (rietveld refinement), impedance spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis.

Various aldoximes and ketoximes synthesis of corresponding aldehydes and ketones in the presence of SiO2@FeSO4 nano composite as recoverable nano catalyst and NH2OH·HCl. The SiO2@FeSO4 nano composite system was carried out between 10 to 15 min in oil bath (70-80 °C) under solvent-free condition in excellent yields in addition this protocol can be used for industrial scales. This method offers some advantages in term of clean reaction conditions, easy work-up procedure, short reaction time, applied to convert α-diketones to α-diketoximes (as longer than other carbonyl compounds), α,β-unsaturated aldehydes and ketones to corresponding oximes and suppression of any side product. So we think that NH2OH•HCl/SiO2@FeSO4 nano composite system could be considered a new and useful addition to the present methodologies in this area. Structure of products and nano composite elucidation was carried out by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, FT-IR, scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

Photocatalytic degradation of some organic dyes under solar light irradiation...Iranian Chemical Society
Nanoparticles of the ZnO and TiO2 were synthesized and the physicochemical properties of the compounds were characterized by IR, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The XRD patterns of the ZnO and TiO2 nanoparticles could be indexed to hexagonal and rutile phase, respectively. Aggregated nanoparticles of ZnO and TiO2 with spherical-like shapes were observed with particle diameter in the range of 80-100 nm. These nanoparticles were used for photocatalytic degradation of various dyes, Rhodamine B (RhB), Methylene blue (MB) and Acridine orange (AO) under solar light irradiation at room temperature. Effect of the amount of catalyst on the rate of photodegradation was investigated. In general, because ZnO is unstable, due to incongruous dissolution to yield Zn(OH)2 on the ZnO particle surfaces and thus leading to catalyst inactivation,the catalytic activity of the system for photodegradation of dyes decreased dramatically when TiO2 was replaced by ZnO.
Modified magnetite nanoparticles with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide as super...Iranian Chemical Society
This paper reports application of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) coated magnetite nanoparticles (Fe3O4 NPs) as a novel adsorbent for removal of two types of disperse dyes, including disperse red 167, and disperse blue 183, from wastewater of textile companies. The effect of parameters including type of surfactant, pH of solution, surfactant concentration, and amount of salt, was investigated and optimized. The obtained results showed that the ratio of initial dye concentration to CTAB amounts has critical effect on removal processes so that removal efficiencies higher than 95% can be achieved even at high concentration of dyes as high as 500 mg l-1 when the ratio is optimum. Removal of dyes is very fast, and equilibrium is reached at times less than 10 min even for high concentration of the dyes. Very high adsorbent capacity (as high as 2000 mg g-1) was yielded for maximum tested concentration of the dyes (500 mg g-1). The obtained result was confirmed by thermogravimetric analysis data. This study showed that CTAB coated Fe3O4 NPs is a very efficient adsorbent for removal of dyes from wastewater of textile companies and has high capacity under optimum conditions.

In this research we have developed a treatment method for textile wastewater by TiO2/SiO2-based magnetic nanocomposite. Textile wastewater includes a large variety of dyes and chemicals and needs treatments. This manuscript presents a facile method for removing dyes from the textile wastewater by using TiO2/SiO2-based nanocomposite (Fe3O4@SiO2/TiO2) under UV irradiation. This magnetic nanocomposite, as photocatalytically active composite, is synthesized via solution method in mild conditions. A large range of cationic, anionic and neutral dyes including: methyl orange, methylene blue, neutral red, bromocresol green and methyl red are used for treatment investigations. Neutral red and bromocresol green have good results in reusing treatment. The high surface area of nanocomposites improve the kinetic of wastewater treatment. In this method, by using the magnetic properties of Fe3O4 nanoparticles, TiO2-based photocatalyst could be separated and reused for 3 times. The efficiency of this method is respectively 100% and 65% for low concentration (10 ppm) and high concentration (50 ppm) of neutral red and bromocrosol green after 3 h treatment. The efficiency of treatment using the second used nanocomposite was 90% for 10 ppm of the same dyes.

An efficient and simple method for the preparation of Si-Imidazole-HSO4 functionalized magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles (Si-Im-HSO4 MNPs) and used as an efficient and reusable magnetic catalysts for the regioselective ring opening of epoxides under green conditions in water. This catalyst was used for the ring opening of epoxide corresponding to the thiocyanohydrins and azidohydrines. Compared to the classical ring opening of epoxides, this new method consistently has the advantage of excellent yields, short reaction times, and methodological simplicity.
Effect of the pillar ligand on preventing agglomeration of ZnO nanoparticles ...Iranian Chemical Society
Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) represent a new class of highly porous materials. On this regard, two nano porous metal-organic frameworks of [Zn2(1,4-bdc)2(H2O)2∙(DMF)2]n (1) and [Zn2(1,4-bdc)2(dabco)]·4DMF·1⁄2H2O (2), (1,4-bdc = benzene-1,4-dicarboxylate, dabco = 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane and DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide) were synthesized and characterized. They were used for preparation of ZnO nanomaterials. With calcination of 1, agglomerated ZnO nanoparticles could be fabricated, but by the same process on 2, the tendency of ZnO nanoparticles to agglomeration was decreased. In addition, the ZnO nanoparticles prepared from compound 2 had smaller diameter than those obtained from compound 1. In fact, the role of organic dabco ligands in 2 is similar to the role of polymeric stabilizers in formation of nanoparticles. Finally, considering the various applications of ZnO nanomaterials such as light-emitting diodes, photodetectors, photodiodes, gas sensors and dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), it seems that preparation of ZnO nanomaterials from their MOFs could be one of the simple and effective methods which may be applied for preparation of them.
Sulfonic-based precursors (SAPs) for silica mesostructures: Advances in synth...Iranian Chemical Society
Sulfonic acid-based precursors (SAP) play an important role in tailoring mesoporous silica’s and convert them to a solid acid catalyst with a Bronsted-type nature. These kinds of solid acids contribute to sustainable and green chemistry by their heterogeneous, recyclable, and high efficiency features. Therefore, knowing the properties and reactivity of SAPs can guide us to manufacture a sulfonated mesostructures compatible with reaction type and conditions. In the present review, some of the important SAPs, their reactivity and mechanism of functionalization are discussed.
Modification of mesoporous silica SBA-15 with different organic molecules to ...Iranian Chemical Society
The recognition of the biologically and environmentally important ions is of great interest in the field of chemical sensors in recent years. The fluorescent sensors as a powerful optical analytical technique for the detection of low level of various analytes such as anions and metal cations have been progressively developed due to the simplicity, cost effective, and selectivity for monitoring specific analytes in various systems. Organic-inorganic hybrid nanomaterials have important advantages as solid chemosensors and various innovative hybrid materials modified by fluorescence molecules were recently prepared. On the other hand, the homogeneous porosity and large surface area of mesoporous silica make it a promising inorganic support. SBA-15 as a two-dimensional hexagonal mesoporous silica material with stable structure, thick walls, tunable pore size, and high specific surface area is a valuable substrate for modification with different organic chelating groups. This review highlights the fluorescent chemosensors for ionic species based on modification of the mesoporous silica SBA-15 with different organic molecules, which have been recently developed from our laboratory.
Antibacterial ethylene propylene rubber impregnated with silver nanopowder: A...Iranian Chemical Society
Following our interest in reaching for a molded rubber article with possible detergent contact applications, durable silver nanopowder (AgNP) is synthesized by arc discharge, then mixed with varying ratios of ethylene propylene rubber (EPR), affording novel AgNP@EPR nanocomposites. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of AgNP as well as AgNP@EPR show no trace of impurity, while scanning electron microscopy (SEM) indicates an average diameter of 50 nm for the former. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images while confirm the SEM results, show quite a few 5 nm AgNP particles lying beside some micro crumbs. Our DC arc discharge technique involves explosion of movable silver anode and static cathode by a current pulse between 5 to 10 A cm-2. A solution blending method is employed for preparation of AgNP@EPR nanocomposites. The AgNP is first dispersed in toluene using an ultrasonic homogenizer, and then thoroughly mixed with EPR in the same solvent whose removal gives nanocomposites of 2, 4, 6 and 8 vol% AgNP in EPR, showing strong antibacterial activity against both Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus.
Photo-electrocatalytic activity of TiO2 nanotubes prepared with two-step anod...Iranian Chemical Society
To improve the photo-catalytic degradation of salicylic acid, we reported the fabrication of ordered TiO2 nanotube arrays by a simple and effective two-step anodization method and then these TiO2 nanotubes treated in a methanol solution under UV light irradiation. The TiO2 nanotubes prepared in the two-step anodization process showed better photo-catalytic activity than TiO2 nanotubes prepared in one-step anodization process. Also, compared with TiO2 nanotubes without the UV pretreatment, the TiO2 nanotubes pretreated in a methanol solution under UV light irradiation exhibited significant enhancements in both photocurrent and activity. The treated TiO2 nanotubes exhibited a 5-fold enhancement in photocurrent and a 2.5-fold increase in the photo-catalytic degradation of salicylic acid. Also the effect of addition of persulfate and periodate on the photo-catalytic degradation of salicylic acid were investigated. The results showed that the degradation efficiency of salicylic acid increased with increasing persulfate and periodate concentrations. These treated TiO2 nanotubes are promising candidates for practical photochemical reactors.
Oxidized multi walled carbon nanotubes for improving the electrocatalytic act...Iranian Chemical Society
In the present paper, the use of a novel carbon paste electrode modified by 7,8-dihydroxy-3,3,6-trimethyl-3,4-dihydrodibenzo[b,d]furan-1(2H)-one (DTD) and oxidized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (OCNTs) is described for determination of levodopa (LD), acetaminophen (AC) and tryptophan (Trp) by a simple and rapid method. At first, the electrochemical behavior of DTD is studied, then, the mediated oxidation of LD at the modified electrode is investigated. At the optimum pH of 7.4, the oxidation of LD occurs at a potential about 330 mV less positive than that of an unmodified carbon paste electrode. Based on differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), the oxidation current of LD exhibits a linear range between 1.0 and 2000.0 μM of LD with a detection limit (3σ) of 0.36 μM. DPV was also used for simultaneous determination of LD, AC and Trp at the modified electrode. Finally, the proposed electrochemical sensor was used for determinations of these substances in human serum sample.
Selective Oxidation of Cyclohexene, Toluene and Ethyl Benzene Catalyzed by Bi...Iranian Chemical Society
Bis-(L-tyrosinato)copper(II) was reacted with 3-(chloropropyl)-trimethoxysilane functionalized silica that has infused magnetite to yield a magnetically separable catalyst in which the copper carboxylate is covalently linked to the silica matrix through the silane linkage. The immobilized catalyst has been characterized by spectroscopic studies (such as FT-IR, EPR, Magnetic Measurement, SEM) and chemical analyses. The immobilized catalytic system functions as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for oxidation of cyclohexene, toluene and ethyl benzene in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (as an oxidant) and sodium bicarbonate (a co-catalyst). The reaction conditions have been optimized for solvent, temperature and amount of oxidant and catalyst. Comparison of the encapsulated catalyst with the corresponding homogeneous catalyst showed that the heterogeneous catalyst had higher activity and selectivity than the homogeneous catalyst. The immobilized catalyst could be readily recovered from the reaction mixture by using a simple magnet, and reused up to five times without any loss of activity.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

ABSTRACT:A powerful and convenient reaction procedure for the C-N coupling reaction (the Buchwald-Hartwig
reaction), yielding products of N-arylanilines and N-arylamines in both conventional heating and microwave irradiation has
been reported. The protocol utilizes a stable and new supper ferromagnetic nanoparticle chelating N-heterocyclic dicarbene
palladium(II) complex (Pd-NHC) as catalyst which helps/allows us to complete the reaction with only 0.002 mol% Pd
producing high yield products. We also examined the reusability of the catalyst. It was found that the catalyst could be
recovered by external magnetic field and reused for seven times without obvious loss in catalytic activity.
Keywords: Buchwald-Hartwig reaction; Magnetite nanoparticles; TCT, Palladium; N-Heterocyclic carbenes
NTRODUCTION
Recently, Undoubtedly, transition metal-catalyzed C-N
coupling reactions have been converted to the one of the
robust reactions in organic synthesis. In particular,
palladium-catalyzed reactions have witnessed tremendous
advances in the industrial and have developed up to
valuable synthetic utilities such as hydrogenation [1-4],
coupling [5-8], cyanation [9,10] and amination [11]
reactions. From the first Pd-catalyzed C-N coupling
reported by Buchwald and Hartwig [12], a large number of
effective catalytic systems have developed [13,14], and they
have all demonstrated their ability for the generation of
arylamines which is widely used in pharmaceuticals,
electronic matrials, pigment, biological and liquid crystals
[15-26].
Despite the wide application of Pd-catalysts in these
reactions, in consequence of toxicity of palladium residuals,
the problem of catalyst recovery and contamination by
palladium is a matter of concern, especially for the
pharmaceutical industry, which acceptable limits of
palladium traces in pharmaceuticals were set usually as ppm

level [27,28]. Thus, the development of a strong and general
method for these transformations involving a robust
reusable catalyst would be attractive to address these
limitations. Applying solid supports such as microporous
polymers [29], activated carbon [30], clays [31] and
especially magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) [32-36] are a
suitable method for overcoming of these disadvantages.
This method presents many advantages over conventional
ones. It can be considered as an environmentally benign
reaction/method that the consequence caused by filtration
steps are omitted in the reaction. For instance, the catalyst
can be recovered with the external magnetic field. Recently,
the applications of these nanoparticles have attracted a great
deal of attention [37-46]. These are distinct both from
isolated molecules and from the bulk material. It has very
good recyclability, a property which is not observed in
homogeneous ones [47,48].
To explore the variety of ways for the C-N coupling
reactions, our primary focus would be on utilization of N-
heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) that are readily accessible. It
is well known that NHCs have emerged as an extremely
useful and versatile class of ligands in homogeneous
transition metal catalysis due to their strong σ-donor
properties, ease of preparation and effective binding ability

to any transition metal irrespective of their oxidation states
[20-25]. With NHCs complexes, as homogeneous catalysts,
numerous investigations have been so far performed, such
as C-C, C-O and C-N coupling reactions [26-31].
Very recently, we have observed the previlage catalytic
activity of nano Pd-NHC complex utilizing N-
methylimidazole bounded to 1,3,5-triazine-tethered SPIONs
(superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles) as a bidentate
NHC ligand [49] (Scheme 1).
This complex efficiently catalyze the Mizoroki-Heck
and Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, leading to
1,2-diarylethylene and aryl benzenes, respectively. These
observations prompted us to explore the potential of this
catalyst for other related reactions. Now, in continuation of
our investigation on the presentation of new nanocatalysts
for organic transformations, we would like to report the
application of SPIONs-bis(NHC)-Pd(II) to the Buchwald-
Hartwig reaction at conventional heating and microwave
irradiation conditions (Scheme 2).
The SPIONs-bis(NHC)-Pd(II) catalyst was prepared
according to our previously reported procedure [49]. Briefly,
silica-coated magnetite nanoparticles (SiO2@Fe3O4) were
selected as support, and subsequently these MNPs were
reacted with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTS) to obtain
the functionalized MNPs. Next, 2,4,6-trichlo-1,3,5-triazine
(TCT) was covalently immobilized onto the surface of the
SPIONs by controlling the temperature and then two other
chlorides were replaced with two equivalents of N-
methylimidazole via formation of C-N bond between
imidazole and triazine parts. Finally, SPIONs-bis(NHC)-
Pd(II) was prepared by the reaction of Pd(OAc)2 in DMSO
with SPIONs-bis(N-methylimidazolium) which was
prepared in the previouse step.
The synthesized catalyst was characterized by several
instrumental methods. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA)
indicated that the total amount of organic moieties on MNPs
is about 6%. These results also approved that the catalyst
has high thermal stability below 600 °C. The palladium
content of SPIONs-bis(NHC)-Pd(II) was found to be 0.27
mmol g-1
of the catalyst as measured by ICP-OES analysis.
The morphology of the catalyst surface, studied by field
emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), showed
that the SPIONs-bis(NHC)-Pd(II) particles are spherical.
revealed that the presence of the palladium was also
confirmed by the energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) results
obtained from SEM analysis of SPIONs-bis(NHC)-Pd(II)
which showed the presence of C, O, Si, Cl, N and Pd. X-ray
photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) as shown in the Fig. 2,
illustrating two peaks at 337.26 (3d5/2) and 342.57 eV (3d3/2),
corresponding to Pd with two oxidation states. The peaks at
335.1 (3d5/2) and 340.4 eV (3d3/2) indicated that a small
portion of Pd is in zero oxidation state. The peaks
corresponding to oxygen, carbon, nitrogen, silicon and
palladium are also clearly observed in XPS elemental

survey of the catalyst. A transmission electron microscopy
(TEM) image of SPIONs-bis(NHC)-Pd(II) revealed the
nanometer dimensions of the catalyst. The size distribution
histogram demonstrated that the average diameter of the
matrix is about 10-11.5 nm (Fig. 2). Finally,
the magnetization obtained using a vibrating sample
magnetometer (VSM) proved the super paramagnetic
behaviour of the catalyst.
In the outset, for screening experiments, the model
reaction was performed by using bromobenzene and
morpholine as substrates, t-BuONa as base in DMSO, and
the mixture was heated at 120 °C for 4 h (Table 1). The
template reaction was first carried out in the absence of any
catalyst, and no product was formed under this condition
(Table 1, entry 1). When the reaction was carried out in the
presence of Pd(OAc)2@nano-SiO2 or Pd(OAc)2@nano-
Fe3O4 (with 10 mol% Pd) as ligand-free systems, appeared
to be less active, and produced only trace amounts of the

product after 4 h (Table 1, entries 2 and 3), but surprisingly
SPIONs-bis(NHC)-Pd(II) with only 0.002 mol% palladium
showed the highest activity, and afforded 3c in 87% yield.
As the aforementioned results, we found that the ligand has
a key effect on the reaction, which the size and the kind of it
could increase the palladium activity in this transformation.
The effect of organic or inorganic bases on the model
reaction was investigated. As shown in Table 1, Na2CO3,
K2CO3, K3PO4 and Cs2CO3 were almost ineffective (Table 1,
entries 5-8).
Further investigations revealed that the reaction is also
affected by other parameters including the amount of
catalyst, substrate ratio, solvent and temperature which upon
them the optimal reaction conditions should be 0.002 mol%
of Pd, Bromobenzene:morpholine is 2:1, at 120 °C, and 4 h
(Table 1, entries 9-17).
Under the optimized conditions, we probed the scope of
the reaction regarding to the kind of aryl halides and amines.

As demonstrated by the results in Scheme 2, aryl or
heteroaryl halides with different substituents smoothly react
with various anilines, aromatic and aliphatic amines, and
produce the corresponding products in generally moderate
to high yields. In general, presence of bromo or iodo
substuents are essential in the aryl ring to afford good yields.
Upon this results, when an electron-withdrawing group,
such as cyano or halides is introduced into the aryl halide
ring, the reaction is promoted faster than that in presence of
electron-donating groups. Furthermore, halopyridines were
also utilized in this reaction and the desired products were
afforded successfully.
The scope of this reaction is substantially extended to
different amines, including primary ones as well as
secondary amines and even imidazole and anilines (Table 2).
An alternative examination was also developed in an
attempt to further investigate the chemoselectivity of the
reaction with carrying out the reaction on 1,4-
dibromobenzene, 2,6-dibromopyridine, and 1,3,5-
tribromotriazine as the more complicated aryl halides.
This reaction was also followed by using of diamines
such as 1,2-diaminoethane. Encouraged by these results,
this procedure was registered acceptable results in all cases.
The reaction conditions are also selective enough not to
produce any side and/or polymer products (Table 2).
It should be noted that although high yields were
obtained in most cases at long reaction times (4-30 h), this
system is very promising for following more investigations.
Whereas quantitative yield of 3c was obtained under
microwave irradiation promptly, this energy source was
used as heating system in this transformation. With this
achievement we investigated the reaction under microwave
irradiation with a temperature controlled program. During
irradiation, the temperature was monitored by an IR sensor
which controlled MW power levels. At 70 °C only 50% of
conversion was registered after 14 min. As expected, by
increasing the temperature up to 90 °C, quantitative
conversion was registered in 14 min and 90% of the adduct
3c was isolated. With the optimized reaction conditions in
hand we examined the Buchwald-Hartwig reaction in the
presence of the same amount of SPIONs-bis(NHC)-Pd(II).
It was generally observed that high to excellent yields of the
products were obtained expediously, and the amine
derivatives were obtained exclusively (Table 3).
The recovered SPIONs-bis(NHC)-Pd(II) could also be
reused without any significant loss of its high catalytic
performance. The catalyst was separated from the reaction
mixture by an external magnetic field and washed with
ethanol. It was easily recyclable after activation at 80 °C
under reduced pressure. SPIONs-bis(NHC)-Pd(II) retained
its activity after seven consecutive times.
In conclusion, we have stablished the first
supperferromagnetic nanoparticle chelating N-heterocyclic
dicarbene palladium(II) complex (Pd-NHC) as a robust and
efficient C-N coupling catalyst. The catalyst is easily
synthesized and can catalyze the Buchwald-Hartwig
reactions with comparable activity as the traditional catalyst.
The catalyst loading is significantly lower in most cases
than previously reported C-N coupling reactions.
We also have successfully developed a general method
for the microwave-assisted C-N coupling reactions,
providing moderate to high speed. Catalyst recycling and
product separation are easier and simpler with the assistance
of an external magnet. The catalyst can be recycled and
reused for seven times with little loss of its activity.

dry toluene (100 ml) at 100 °C for 24 h. After this time, the
magnetite nanoparticles were separated from the reaction
mixture by an external permanent magnet, washed with
ethanol and mili-Q water several times and dried under
vacuum at 60 °C. For preparation of supported N-
heterocyclic carbene ligand, to a mixture of these magnetic
nanoparticles (0.50 g) in dry THF (40 ml) at 0 °C, 1,3,5-
trichlorotriazine (TCT) (0.25 g) were added and the mixture
was stirred at 0 °C for 2 h.
After consumption of TCT, as indicated by TLC, di-
isopropylethyl amine (1 ml) and N-methylimidazole (5 ml)
were added to this mixture and refluxed in dry toluene for 1
day. The residue was separated from the mixture by an
external permanent magnet, washed with CH2Cl2 and THF
for several times and finally dried under vacuum at 60 °C.
The final catalyst nanoparticles were obtained as dark-
brown solids by addition of Pd(OAc)2 (101 mg, 0.45 mmol)
to a dispersed mixture of SPIONs-bis(NHC) (1.01 g) in
DMSO (5 ml) under argon atmosphere at room temperature.
Next, the mixture was stirred for 4 h at 60 °C and then
allowed to proceed for an additional 30 min at 100 °C. The
resulting complex was collected by an external permanent
magnet and washed with ethanol (3 × 10 ml) to remove the
unreacted Pd(OAc)2, and finally dried under air.
General Procedure for Buchwald-Hartwig
Reaction under Thermal Conditions and
Microwave Irradiation
A round-bottom flask was charged under argon with aryl
halid (2 mmol), amine (1 mmol), DMSO (1 ml), t-BuONa
(2 mmol) and the catalyst (0.074 g, 0.002 mol% Pd). The
reaction mixture was stirred and heated at 120 °C for
several hours or exposed to MW irradiation (250 W, 90 °C)
(thin layer chromatography monitoring). After completion
of the reaction, the reaction mixture was cooled to room
temperature; the mixture was diluted with Et2O, filtered and
concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was
purified by column chromatography on silica-gel.
CONCLUSIONS
We have demonstrated the synthesis of a new and
powerful nanocatalyst which is employed in the Buchwald-
Hartwig reaction, and provides a high yield product. Easy
purification, recyclability and very low Pd leaching are
main characteristic of the process.
We have also successfully developed a general method
for the microwave-assisted C-N coupling reactions,
providing moderate to high speed, and short reaction times.
