Abstract
Magnetic Fe3O4 nanocatalysts have gained unique importance in the catalysis community due to their unprecedented properties, including high surface area, thermal and chemical stability, elevated saturation magnetization, high degree of spin polarization, ease of separation with an external magnet, and versatile functionality. Fe3O4 nanocatalysts can play a prominent role in the sustainable synthesis of diverse and densely functionalized chromenes, as they are a cost-effective alternative while being an efficient and user-friendly material. This review highlights the eco-friendly synthesis of functionalized chromenes employing task-specific Fe3O4 nanocatalysts, emphasizing recent advancements in magnetite functionalization to improve catalytic activity and selectivity. Moreover, we address the challenges, possible future development directions, and opportunities in synthesizing potent bioactive chromenes over magnetic Fe3O4-based catalysts. This review will inspire further research to explore novel Fe3O4 catalysts and their implications in heterocyclization.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Organometallic Chemistry targets original papers dealing with theoretical aspects, structural chemistry, synthesis, physical and chemical properties (including reaction mechanisms), and practical applications of organometallic compounds.
Organometallic compounds are defined as compounds that contain metal - carbon bonds. The term metal includes all alkali and alkaline earth metals, all transition metals and the lanthanides and actinides in the Periodic Table. Metalloids including the elements in Group 13 and the heavier members of the Groups 14 - 16 are also included. The term chemistry includes syntheses, characterizations and reaction chemistry of all such compounds. Research reports based on use of organometallic complexes in bioorganometallic chemistry, medicine, material sciences, homogeneous catalysis and energy conversion are also welcome.
The scope of the journal has been enlarged to encompass important research on organometallic complexes in bioorganometallic chemistry and material sciences, and of heavier main group elements in organometallic chemistry. The journal also publishes review articles, short communications and notes.
