Synthesis of benzylidenemalononitrile by Knoevenagel condensation through monodisperse carbon nanotube-based NiCu nanohybrids

Monodisperse nickel/copper nanohybrids (NiCu@MWCNT) based on multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) were prepared for the Knoevenagel condensation of aryl and aliphatic aldehydes. The synthesis of these nanohybrids was carried out by the ultrasonic hydroxide assisted reduction method. NiCu@MWCNT nano...

Description
Summary:Monodisperse nickel/copper nanohybrids (NiCu@MWCNT) based on multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) were prepared for the Knoevenagel condensation of aryl and aliphatic aldehydes. The synthesis of these nanohybrids was carried out by the ultrasonic hydroxide assisted reduction method. NiCu@MWCNT nanohybrids were characterized by analytical techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), and Raman spectroscopy. According to characterization results, NiCu@MWCNT showed that these nanohybrids form highly uniform, crystalline, monodisperse, colloidally stable NiCu@MWCNT nanohybrids were successfully synthesized. Thereafter, a model reaction was carried out to obtain benzylidenemalononitrile derivatives using NiCu@MWCNT as a catalyst, and showed high catalytic performance under mild conditions over 10–180 min.
