ZnCl₂ loaded TiO₂ nanomaterial: an efficient green catalyst to one-pot solvent-free synthesis of propargylamines.

ABSTRACT: One-pot green synthesis of propargylamines using ZnCl₂ loaded TiO₂ nanomaterial under solvent-free conditions has been effectively accomplished. The aromatic aldehydes, amines, and phenylacetylene were reacted at 100 °C in the presence of the resultant catalyst to form propargylamines. The nanocrystalline TiO₂ was initially synthesized by a sol-gel method from titanium(iv) isopropoxide (TTIP) and further subjected to ZnCl₂ loading by a wet impregnation method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns revealed the formation of crystalline anatase phase TiO₂. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) showed the formation of agglomerated spheroid shaped particles having a size in the range of 25-45 nm. Transmission electron microscopy (
