Abstract:
In this study, a magnetic zirconium-metal organic framework (Zr-MOF, UiO-66-NH2) was solvothermally synthesized. At first, Fe3O4@SiO2 nanoparticles were modified with acrylic acid and then UiO-66-NH2 was grown on them. In order to immobilize of copper, the Zr-MOF was functionalized by 2, 4, 6-trichloro-1, 3, 5-triazine and 5-phenyl tetrazole. The properties of the Fe3O4@modified UiO-66@Cu (II) were investigated by various techniques such as FT-IR, FESEM and EDX. The FESEM images showed particles size was around 135 nm. After that, the catalyst tested for a coupling reaction: cyanation of aryl halides and desired products were synthesized in excellent yields. The coupling of aryl halides with both electron-rich and electron-deficient substrates proceeded well to provide the corresponding benzonitriles in excellent yields. In general, electron-withdrawing substituents on the aryl ring increase the reactivity, while electron-donating substituents decrease the reactivity. It is worth to note, mild reaction condition and shorter reaction time are the advantages of using this prepared catalyst.
