Bio-catalysts are non-toxic, metal-free, abundant, and efficient materials with less waste generation that decrease the environmental pollution. Nano-ovalbumin is a biodegradable phosphoglyco protein with isoelectric point (pI) of 4.5, molecular weight of 44.5 kDa containing 385 residues of amino acids. Nano-ovalbumin can be used as a non-toxic heterogeneous and eco-friendly catalyst for promotion of organic compounds. Quinazolinones have many biological and medicinal activities such as anticonvulsant, antitumor, anticancer, hypnotic/sedatives, antimalarial, antibacterial, antioxidant, antimicrobial, antifungal, cytotoxic, antiproliferative, and inhibitory activities on α-glucosidase. In this research, nano-ovalbumin was ready by a new, easy, inexpensive and convenient protocol from egg white and used as a heterogeneous biocatalyst in the synthesis of 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones via two-component reaction of 2-aminobenzamide with aldehyde or ketone. This eco-friendly catalyst carried out the reaction in green conditions and with good to excellent yields. The structure of products were determined by Fourier Transform-Infrared (FT-IR), 1 H-Nuclear Magnetic Resonance ( 1 H-NMR) and their physical properties were compared with those reported in others work.
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.
