Copper ferrite nano material as reusable heterogeneous initiator in the synthesis of β, γunsaturated ketones and allylation to acid chlorides are presented. The reaction of allylichalides with various acid chlorides is achieved in the presence of copper ferrite nano powders at room temperature in tetrahydrofuran (THF). The present method is first of its kind in the synthesis of title compounds without any additive/ co-catalyst. The nano catalyst is easily recovered and its reusability is recorded.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
