In this work, a simple and green method is reported for the biosynthesis of Cu/bone nanocomposite using Cordyline fruticosa extract as a stabilizer and reductant. Animal bone was used as a natural support to prevent the accumulation of Cu nanoparticles. The catalytic activity of Cu/bone nanocomposite was assessed in the synthesis of 1‐substituted 1H‐1,2,3,4‐tetrazoles and reduction of various organic dyes, including 4‐nitrophenol (4‐NP), nigrosin (NS), congo red (CR) and methylene blue (MB). The best catalytic performance in the synthesis of 1‐substituted tetrazoles was achieved using 0.05 g of Cu/bone nanocomposite at 120°C. In addition, under optimal conditions, the absorption bands corresponding to 4‐NP, CR, NS and MB completely disappeared after about 6 min, 3 min, 50 s and 7 s, respectively. The biosynthesis protocol used in the preparation of Cu/bone nanocomposite offers a very attractive area for further research.

“…Over the past 15 years, there has been growing interest in coupling reactions, one of the most powerful tools for C‒C and C‒X bond formation. C‒C and C‒X coupling reactions are widely utilized to assemble a vast range of important molecules in pharmaceutical, agricultural, natural products, non-linear optical materials, polymeric materials, molecular electronics, polyalkynylated molecules, and macrocycles with acetylene links [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 ]. There are a variety of studies on C‒C and C‒X coupling reactions with transition-metal-based catalysts.…”

Carbon‒carbon (C‒C) and carbon‒heteroatom (C‒X) bonds that form via transition-metal-catalyzed processes have been extensively used in the organic synthesis and preparation of natural products and important compounds such as heterocycles, biologically active molecules, and dendrimers. Among the most significant catalysts, magnetic nanoparticles-supported palladium complexes are very effective, versatile, and heterogeneous catalysts for a wide range of C‒C and C‒X coupling reactions due to their reusability, thermal stability, and excellent catalytic performance. In this review, recent advances to develop magnetic nanoparticles supported palladium complexes, including their preparation, characterization, catalytic application, and reusability in the formation of both C‒C and C‒X bonds, by authors such as Sonogashira, Heck, Suzuki‒Miyaura, and Stille, and a few examples concerning N-arylation, S-arylation, and Csp2-P coupling reactions are discussed.

“…Over the past decade, the use of metal nanoparticles (MNPs) have been developed due to their unique properties such as high catalytic activity, high surface‐to‐volume ratio, low toxicity and cost, simple recovery, recyclability, high stability, and insolubility in organic solvents . Among various metal NPs, Ag, Pd, Ni, Au and particularly Cu NPs have most commonly been employed as catalyst to catalyze the organic transformations.…”

A simple and convenient protocol was established for the synthesis of the N‐benzyl‐N‐arylcyanamides through N‐benzylation of a wide variety of arylcyanamides using copper nanoparticles immobilized on natural zirconium silicate as a novel and green heterogeneous catalyst. In this study, we showed a novel, cost efficient, convenient and simple method for green synthesis of Cu/zirconium silicate nanocomposite by using Rubia tinctorum leaf extract as capping and reducing agent. The structure of the novel catalyst was successfully characterized using a number of micro/spectroscopic techniques such as XRD, FESEM, BET, EDS, TEM, FT‐IR and elemental mapping. TEM micrographs of obtaining biocatalyst revealed mostly spherical particles with an average diameter of about 15–25 nm on the surface of natural support. The prepared catalyst was used in the N‐benzylation of a variety of arylcyanamides with benzyl bromide and showed high activity and stability for the efficient synthesis of N‐benzylarylcyanamides in good yields. Remarkably, the catalyst can be easily recovered from the reaction medium and reused up to five runs without losing its catalytic activity.
