Title Functionalized (g-C3N4)/biochar support by Polyethyleneimine (PEI) as efficient nano catalyst for synthesis of 2-amino-4H-chromenes Derivatives
Type Presentation
Keywords Polyethyleneimine, graphitic carbon nitride, biochar, recyclable catalysts
Abstract Design and synthesis of green and recyclable catalysts in order to improve the efficiency of organic chemistry reactions is a significant challenge [1]. 2-amino-4H-chromenes are known to have diverse biological and pharmacological activities [2]. In this study, first, graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) /biochar nanosheets with high surface area and chemical stability were synthesized. Afterwards, the surface of this nano-substrate was modified with polyethyleneimine to obtain g-C3N4 biochar/PEI. The synthesis of 2-amino-4H-chromenes derivatives was performed in reflux (water: ethanol) condition, with high yield. The advantages of this reaction include easy catalyst separation and reusability thanks to its heterogeneous nature, with good to excellent efficiency, and finally short reaction time.
