Modified magnetic chitosan with mono(6-amino-6-deoxy)-β-cyclodextrin as a novel catalyst toward the synthesis of pyrazolopyranopyrimidines and pyrano[2,3-c]pyrazole-3-carboxylates.

In this study, we successfully fabricated a novel biocomposite composed of 6-amino β-cyclodextrin (CDNH) grafted onto magnetic chitosan (FeO@Cs). This biocomposite was thoroughly characterized using FT-IR, NMR, PXRD, EDX mapping, SEM, TEM, TGA, and VSM techniques. Subsequently, the innovative biocomposite was harnessed to serve as a heterogeneous catalyst to facilitate two series of multicomponent reactions (MCRs) aimed at synthesizing pyrazole-fused heterocycle derivatives.

Melamine phosphate-modified magnetic chitosan: a novel biocompatible catalyst for the synthesis of biological tetrahydrodipyrazolopyridine and pyrazolopyranopyrimidine derivatives.

A novel biocompatible composite was fabricated by the functionalization of magnetic chitosan with the melamine phosphate (MP) ionic compound to serve as a recoverable and bifunctional catalyst, aiming at the diversity-oriented generation of biological tetrahydropyrazolopyridine and pyrazolopyrimidine derivatives. This involved a meticulously orchestrated reaction, exploiting the in situ generated pyrazole alongside aromatic aldehydes, ammonium acetate, and (thio) barbituric acid. The present work manifests outstanding advantages, offering a novel and great method for the optimal synthesis of two valuable heterocyclic series especially five new derivatives.
