DABCO (1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane)-modified magnetite with silica-MCM-41 shell (Fe 3 O 4 @silica-MCM-41@DABCO) as an effective, magnetic and novel heterogeneous reusable nanocatalyst was synthesized and analysed using various techniques. Evaluation of the catalytic activity of this nanocatalyst was performed in the clean synthesis of substituted 2-aminodihydropyrano[3,2-b] pyran-3-cyano in high yields via in situ reaction of azido kojic acid, malononitrile and various aldehydes.KEYWORDS 2-amino-4,8-dihydropyrano[3,2-b]pyran-3-carbonitrile, azido kojic acid, Fe 3 O 4 @MCM-41@DABCO, Michael addition, nanocatalyst
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.
