Catalysis Letters Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

The starch supported cuprous iodide nanoparticles (CuI-NPs@Starch) were synthesized in aqueous medium and characterized by transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and atomic absorption spectra analysis. The newly synthesized CuI NPs on starch have been demonstrated first time as an efficient catalyst for the regioselective 3-allylation reaction of N-substituted indoles as well as ring-substituted indoles using various allyl alcohols under moisture and air insensitive conditions.

Notes

  1. Environmental friendly polysaccharides, such as chitosan, cellulose and agarose are currently being explored as support materials for catalyst systems. Please see the Refs. [20,21,22,23,24].

  2. The non-reusability of catalyst may also be caused by the degradation of the starch polymer. We thank one of the reviewers for this insightful suggestion.
