Abstract

Abstract An iron Schiff base complex was encapsulated in SBA-15 mesoporous silica to afford a Fe (III)-Schiff base/SBA-15 heterogeneous nanocatalyst for the synthesis of pyridopyrazine and quinoxaline heterocycles. These reactions proceeded in water with excellent yields. The catalyst was characterized by physico-chemical and spectroscopic methods and found to retain the characteristic channel structures of the SBA-15, allowing ...
