Fabrication and characterization of mesoporous yolk-shell nanocomposites as an effective reusable heterogeneous base catalyst for the synthesis of ortho-aminocarbonitrile tetrahydronaphthalenes.

ABSTRACT: Mesoporous yolk-shell nanocomposites (MYSNs) were loaded with a mobile CaMg core inside the silica shell. CaMg@MYS nanocomposites have been effectively prepared inside the inner cavity of a novel structure that consists of hollow mesoporous silica spheres. Tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and an amount of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) are coated on the carbon spheres used as a hard template in the multi-step synthetic procedure. In this method, the target products were obtained in high to excellent yields between 87-96% and quick response times between 10-20 minutes under mild conditions. The CaMg@MYS catalyst shows promise as an efficient and reusable catalyst in multicomponent processes. The CaMg@MYS multi-yolk spheres compared to metal oxide nanostructures indicated both high cat
