Silica-Coated Magnetic-Nanoparticle-Supported DABCO-Derived Acidic Ionic Liquid for the Efficient Synthesis of Bioactive 3,3-Di(indolyl)indolin-2-ones.

ABSTRACT: In this work, biologically significant 3,3-di(indolyl)indolin-2-ones have been synthesized using a silica-coated magnetic-nanoparticle-supported 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO)-derived and acid-functionalized ionic liquid as the catalytic entity. The fabricated nanocomposite catalyzes the pseudo-three-component reaction of isatins and indoles explicitly via hydrogen-bonding interactions between substrates and the catalyst. The nanocatalytic system utilizes water as the green reaction medium to obtain a library of indolinones in good to excellent yields under mild reaction conditions. Besides, the catalyst could be easily recovered from the reaction mixture through simple external magnetic forces, which enables excellent recyclability of the catalyst for successive runs without apprec
