- Green synthesis of CuO nanoparticles using: Lantana camara flower extract and their potential catalytic activity towards the aza-Michael reaction
-
Aza-Michael addition is one of the most exploited reactions in organic chemistry. It is regarded as one of the most popular and efficient methods for the creation of the carbon-nitrogen bond, which is a key feature of many bioactive molecules. Herein, we report the synthesis of CuO nanoparticles by an alkaline hydrolysis process in the presence of the flower extract of Lantana camara, an invasive weed, followed by calcination in air at 400 °C. Microscopic results indicated that the plant extract played an important role in the modulation of the size and shape of the product. In the presence of extract, porous CuO nanostructures are formed. While mostly aggregated rod-shaped CuO nanostructures are formed in the absence of extract. The products are pure and highly crystalline possessing the monoclinic phase. The CuO nanoparticles have been used as a catalyst in the aza-Michael addition reaction in aqueous medium under ultrasound vibration. The product yield is excellent and the catalyst is reusable up to the fifth cycle. The catalyst system can be extended to various substituted substrates with excellent to moderate yields.

- Synthesis and catalytic activity of porous polymer containing ionic liquid structures
-
A novel porous polymer containing ionic liquid (IL) structures was synthesized via quternization and condensation of 4-vinylpyridine and p-xylylene dichloride. The ionic liquid structures were incorporated in the polymeric framework and for this reason bulky IL molecules can hardly block pores and neutralize active sites. The polymer shows a high BET surface area and easily accessible active sites. Catalytically the polymer is very active in Michael additions with averaged yields over 96.0% achieved after short reaction times. The high BET surface, remarkable activity, operational simplicity, wide applicability and improved stability are the key properties of the polymer.
