An economical synthesis of benzodiazepines using ACT@IRMOF core-shell as a potential eco-friendly catalyst through the activated carbon of thymus plant (ACT).

ABSTRACT: Here, a straightforward design is employed to synthesize a nanocatalyst based on a carbon-activated modified metal-organic framework using the solvothermal method. This work presents a simple and practical approach for producing the activated carbon derived from the Thymus plant (ACT) modified with amine-functionalized isoreticular metal-organic framework-3 (IRMOF-3) to create an ACT@IRMOF-3 core-shell structure. Successful functionalization was confirmed through N₂ adsorption isotherms, FT-IR, FE-SEM, TEM, EDS, elemental mapping, TGA, and XRD analysis. The ACT@IRMOF-3 nanocomposite demonstrated exceptional performance in the synthesis of novel benzodiazepine derivatives, facilitating high product yields using various 1,2-phenylenediamine and aromatic aldehydes under mild condit
