Abstract
A series of quinazolinone derivatives were efficiently synthesized via a microwave-assisted one-pot multicomponent reaction employing silica-supported zinc chloride (SiO2-ZnCl2) as an environmentally benign and recyclable catalyst under solvent-free conditions. This synthetic strategy offers notable benefits, including short reaction times, high yields, and environmental sustainability, aligning with the principles of green chemistry. The catalytic system exhibits excellent activity and recyclability across multiple reaction cycles, with minimal loss of efficiency. Structural elucidation of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by spectroscopic techniques such as FT-IR, NMR, and mass spectrometry. The antioxidant potential of the synthesized quinazolinone derivatives were investigated for the first time using the DPPH radical scavenging assay and the ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assay exhibiting significant antioxidant activity. This study highlights an efficient, eco-friendly synthetic route for biologically active N-containing heterocycles with promising pharmacological profiles.
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.
