Ionic liquid as an effective green media for the synthesis of (5Z, 8Z)-7H-pyrido[2,3-d]azepine derivatives and recycable Fe3O4/TiO2/multi-wall cabon nanotubes magnetic nanocomposites as high performance organometallic nanocatalyst

Abstract

In this research we investigated the preparation of new (5Z, 8Z)-7H-pyrido[2,3-d]azepine derivatives in high yields via multicomponent reaction of isatins, alkyl bromides, activated acetylenic compounds and ammonium acetate using ionic liquid 1-octhyl-3-methyl imidazolium bromide ([OMIM]Br) as a stabilizer and soft template at room temperature in the presence of Fe₃O₄/TiO₂/Carbon nanotubes magnetic nanocomposites as a reusable and effective nanocatalyst that are synthesized using ionic liquid [OMIM]Br as a stabilizer, soft template, green media and moderate base. Because of having a NH group in the synthesized pyridine derivatives, we investigate antioxidant property of some synthesized compounds by diphenyl-picrylhydrazine (DPPH) radical trapping and power of ferric reduction experiment. Short time of reaction, high yields of product, easy separation of catalyst and products are some advantages of this procedure.
