ABSTRACT

Silica nanoparticles supported copper containing ionic liquid (SNIL-Cu(II)) provided a highly stable, active, reusable, spherical, and solid-phase catalyst for click chemistry. The SNIL-Cu(II) catalyst was readily prepared from 1,2-bis(4-pyridylthio)ethane immobilized on silica nanoparticles modified with 3-chloropropyltrimethoxysilane and Cu(OTf)2, and the morphology, structure and properties of nanoparticles were investigated through different analytical tools. This catalytic system showed high activity in a one-pot synthesis of 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3triazoles by click reactions between variety of alkynes, organic halides, and sodium azide at

room temperature in aqueous poly ethylene glycol as a green media with high turnover frequency (up to 7920 h−1). Moreover, the SNIL-Cu(II) was also used as an efficient catalyst for the preparation of a series of multi-fold 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles. Also, this unique catalyst was readily reused without any decrease in its catalytic activity to give the corresponding triazoles quantitatively. INTRODUCTION Over the past decade, ionic liquids (ILs) have received a great deal of attention in a wide range of different areas reaching from material synthesis to separation science as well as alternative reaction media. In fact, their fascinating properties such as low vapor pressure, wide liquid range, good conductivity, thermal and chemical stability, and modification of the chemical structures of their ions offer a basis for new and improved technologies.1-5 Recently, the heterogeneous immobilized ILs have attracted considerable interest due to the extended advantages such as easy recovery and reusability, low cost and operational simplicity.610

In this regard, nanostructure solid supports exhibit higher activity and selectivity than their

corresponding bulk materials, because of their high surface area, catalyst loading capacity and good dispersion.11-12 So, design and preparation of novel and efficient series of immobilized nano catalysts derived from metal ion containing ILs, may afford an opportunity to achieve new catalytic materials with practical high performance engineering applications.13-17 Among transition metals, Cu(II) complexes have long been found as efficient catalysts in a variety of chemical reactions, because of their low cost, high selectivity and numerous industrial applications.17-19 Moreover, the use of Cu(II) complexes as ILs have rapidly increased for organic transformations in recent years.20-24

A notable copper-catalyzed reaction is Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition in which organic azides and terminal alkynes are united to afford 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles in a region selective manner.25-27 The copper-catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC), broadly known as the azide/alkyne “click” reaction.28 "Click chemistry" concept refers to a group of reactions that are fast, simple to use, high yielding, versatile, wide in scope, modular, stereospecific, generated only safe by-products that can be removed without chromatography. Besides, the reaction had to proceed under green conditions, with readily available and inexpensive starting materials.29 1,2,3-Triazoles family is an important category of organic compounds regarding their various biological and pharmacological activities such as anti-allergic, anti-bacterial, and anti-HIV.30-36 So far, alternative copper-catalyzed processes have been developed to synthesize regioselective 1,2,3-triazoles.37-43 At the outset, simple Cu(I) species were directly used in this transformation. In the following, because of the instability of Cu(I) salts, the active species were generated in situ from reduction of Cu(II) salts such as CuBr2, CuSO4 and Cu(OTf)2 with ascorbate salts.44,45 These systems can be extremely efficient, but, they suffer from serious drawbacks including the side effect of heavy metal impurities on molecular biological activity and copper contamination of isolated desired product.46 Hence, copper species were immobilized on different solid supports such alumina,47 zeolite

to solve these problems.

However, long reaction times, the use of large amounts of copper or/and easy catalyst leaching are the limitations and drawbacks of many of the previously reported methods. To overcome the above mentioned problems and as a consequence of our efforts on the development of efficient nano catalytic systems for useful synthetic organic transformations,51-53 herein, we wish to report an efficient three-component synthesis of mono- and multi-fold 1,4-

First, silica nanoparticles were synthesized by modification of previously reported water-in-oil (W/O) microemulsion process (Scheme 2).54 The particle size and dispersity of nanoparticles can be easily controlled by tuning the microemulsion properties according to various scientific studies.54-56 The organic moiety of nanoparticles was determined about 12% by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) (Figure 2a). Preparation of Supported Ionic Liquid on Silica Nanoparticles (SNIL) The preparation route for supported ionic liquid on silica nanoparticles (SNIL) is shown in Scheme 2. The ligand, 1,2-bis(4-pyridylthio)ethane, was prepared by the reaction of 4bromopyridinium chloride with 1,2-ethandithiol. The reaction of this ligand with modified nanoparticles, afforded the supported ligand. Then, nanoparticles were reacted with methyl iodide in order to prepare the supported ionic liquid. These processes were monitored by elemental analysis, FT-IR spectroscopy and TGA. The FT-IR was applied to characterize the samples prepared in each step (Figure 1). The bands correspond to the asymmetric and symmetric stretching vibration of Si-O-Si bond can be clearly observed at 1105 and 811 cm-1 in the FT-IR spectra of functionalized silica nanoparticles (SN) and silica nanoparticles supported ionic liquid (SNIL). Furthermore, the bands at 2863 and 2975 cm-1, were assigned to C-H stretching vibrations. After preparation of SNIL, a new characteristic vibrational bands correspond to the stretching vibration of pyridinium ring can clearly be observed at 1635 and 1595 cm-1 (Figure 1b). Also, the C-S band of ligand at 980 cm-1 was masked in the FT-IR spectrum, due to the presence of strong Si-O band in the range of 10001200 cm-1.

The weight loss of the nanoparticles between 30-650 oC as a function of temperature was determined using TGA, which is an irreversible process because of the thermal decomposition (Figure 2). The first step of weight loss (between 30-200 °C) in the case of silica nanoparticles corresponds to the removal of physically adsorbed solvents, whereas, in the other cases, the main weight loss in the second step (between 200-500 °C) is due to the removal of organic moieties on the surface. The observed total weight loss for SNIL is about 32%, which demonstrates that the IL grafting on nanoparticles had been successfully achieved.

After preparation and characterization of SNIL, copper was immobilized on the nanoparticles via complexation of copper(II) triflate with ligand to produce the silica nanoparticles supported ionic liquid copper complex, SNIL-Cu(II), (Scheme 2). The copper content of this catalyst, measured by ICP analysis, was obtained to be 0.21 mmolg-1 of SNIL-Cu(II).

The morphology of the surface of SN and SNIL-Cu(II) was studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) (Figures 3a and 3b). As can be seen, the particles are spherical and have sizes within the range of nanometers. Furthermore, the energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) results, obtained from SEM analysis for the SN and SNIL-Cu(II) are shown in Figures 3c and 3d, which clearly shows the presence of copper in the SNIL-Cu(II) catalyst.

The results for element distribution mapping of SNIL-Cu(II) are shown in Figure 4. These images show that the copper complex is homogeneously dispersed on silica nanoparticles and the catalytic active sites are isolated which is responsible for high catalytic activity of this catalyst under mild conditions.

Further characterization of SNIL-Cu(II) was performed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) (Figure 5). The dark regions or black spots in the photograph demonstrate the copper species while the colorless parts belong to silica nanoparticles, this is due to the higher electron density of copper compared to silica nanoparticles.

After, synthesis and characterization of the catalyst, the catalytic activity of this heterogeneous catalyst was investigated in the click reaction. Initially, the effect of different copper(II) catalysts such as CuCl2, Cu(OTf)2, Cu(OTf)2-IL and SNIL-Cu(II) was investigated in the three-component reaction between 4-bromobenzyl bromide (1 mmol), phenylacetylene (1 mmol), and sodium azide (1.1 mmol) in the presence of Na-ascorbate was chosen as model reaction. The results, which are summarized in Table 1, demonstrate that Cu(OTf)2 immobilized on SNIL is the best catalyst and shows higher catalytic compared to CuCl2, Cu(OTf)2 and Cu(OTf)2-IL as homogeneous catalysts. The high catalytic activity compared to homogeneous counterpart can be attributed to dispersion of catalytic active site on high surface area silica nanoparticles. Such behavior has been reported previously for supported catalysts.57 The model reaction was also carried out in the presence of 0.1 mol% of conventional copper (I) species such as CuI and CuCl. Under these conditions, the desired product was obtained 32% and 45%, respectively (entries 5 and 6). The catalytic activity of Cu(OTf)2 is less than CuI and CuCl because the first step in the case of copper(II) species is its reduction to copper (I) in the presence of Na-ascorbate which increases the reaction time, while in the case of CuI and CuCl the reaction times are shorter.

methylpyridin-1-ium) iodide was used as ionic liquid.

Then, the reaction parameters such as the catalyst amount, solvent type and temperature were examined to obtain the most appropriate conditions for click reaction. The results are summarized in Table 2. The model reaction was carried out in different solvents such as PEG, H2O, EtOH, DMSO, CH3CN, toluene, hexane, aqueous PEG and DMF (Table 2, entries 1-10). It was found that, the solubility of sodium azide is an efficient parameter on the yield of the desired product. In aprotic polar and nonpolar solvents, the reaction gives very low yield probably because of poor solubility of sodium azide; while, in polar protic solvents, higher yield of the corresponding triazole was obtained. Among the solvents examined, PEG-400/H2O (1:1) was found to be the best reaction medium (Table 2, entry 6). Also, the effects of the amount of catalyst was explored. As can be seen, the yield decreased obviously with decreasing the catalyst amount (Table 2, entry 11) by its increasing did not affect the yield of the desire product (Table 2, entry 12). Furthermore, increasing the reaction temperature to 75 °C did not decrese the reaction time (Table 2, entries 13 and 14). Obviously, in the absence of Na-ascorbate as reducing agent for conversion of Cu(II) to Cu(I), the corresponding 1,2,3-triazole obtained in low yield after 4 h (Table 2, entry 15). Therefore, we concluded that 0.05 mol% of the catalyst and 2 mol% of Na-ascorbate in PEG/H2O (1:1) at room temperature are the most appropriate reaction conditions for this transformation.

To survey the scope and versatility of the SNIL-Cu(II) in the click reaction, a variety of benzyl bromide, alkynes and sodium azide were reacted under the optimal reaction conditions. As shown in Scheme 3, both aromatic and aliphatic terminal acetylenes gave the corresponding triazoles in excellent yields, high purity, and excellent regioselectivity, in which only 1,4regioisomeric products were formed (3a-i). More importantly, the benzyl bromides containing electron-donating and electron-withdrawing substituents reacted efficiently to afford the desired products in high yields. The turnover frequency (TOF) of the SNIL-Cu(II) reached to 7920 h−1. To the best of our knowledge, this is the highest TOF obtained for copper catalyzed Huisgen cycloaddition. In order to further widen the applicability of this catalytic system and due to the various applications of the multi-fold 1,4-substituted triazole isomers in the field of supramolecular chemistry, chemical biology, and materials chemistry, their preparation were also studied.58-64 As shown in Scheme 4, the "bis-click" reaction of 1,2- or 1,4-bis(bromomethyl)benzene with terminal alkynes and sodium azide was performed efficiently in the presence of SNIL-Cu(II) catalyst at room temperature and the corresponding bis(triazole) 5a-c were obtained in 80-90% yields.

Furthermore, three-component multicyclization of 1,3,5-tris(bromomethyl)benzene as core unit with alkynes and sodium azide led to the formation of a tris(triazole) as flower-shaped molecules in 72-94% catalytic system has much activity yield (Scheme 4, 7a-c). Notably, these results show that the present catalytic system has much higher activity and TOF for preparation of multi-fold 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles compared to Cu(II)[email protected] This may be due to the ionic liquid nature of this catalyst which acts as a pseudo-homogeneous catalyst.65

Compared to most of the previously reported methods, the yield with the Cu(II)-PsIL catalyst is higher, the reaction time is shorter and the turn over frequency (TOF) is higher, indicating the efficiency of this method (Table 3). Compared to polystyrene supported copper complex, the silica supported copper catalyst is more efficient. This can be attributed to the nano nature of silica particles in which the catalytic active species dispersed on a material with higher surface area.57

The recycling and reusability of a catalyst are important from economic and environmental points of view. Therefore, the reusability of SNIL-Cu(II) was examined in the reaction of 4bromobenzyl bromide with phenyl acetylene and in the presence of sodium azide under the optimized conditions. After completion of reaction, the reaction mixture was diluted with water and ethyl acetate and the catalyst was separated by centrifugation and reused. The results showed that the catalyst could be reused six consecutive times without significant loss of its catalytic activity (Figure 6). Comparison of the FT-IR spectrum of the recovered catalyst after the 6th run with fresh catalyst showed no obvious changes in the structure of the catalyst which showed the stability of the catalyst during the catalytic cycles (See SI, Figure S35).

The amount of copper leached was determined by ICP-OES. The result of ICP analysis for the reaction showed no copper species. To establish the heterogeneity of three component click reaction, a hot filtering test was performed for this reaction at 75 °C.72,73 The reaction mixture

was filtered (centrifuged) at 75 °C after 7 min, at which the SNIL-Cu(II) and the desired product were readily removed. The filtrate was stirred but no further progress was observed (Figure 7).

Figure 7. Hot filtration test in the click reaction catalyzed by SNIL-Cu(II).

A possible three component click reaction pathway in the presence of SNIL-Cu(II) catalyst is illustrated in Scheme 5. First, Cu(II) is reduced to Cu(I) by the reaction of Na-ascorbate to produce the compound 1 which in turns react with an alkyne to give a copper acetylide 2.74,75 This copper acetylide complex can be converted to a dinuclear copper complex 3 (the use of a weakly coordinating trifluoromethanesulfonate (OTf) ligand is important for formation of dinuclear complex). Both compounds 2 and 3 can catalyzed the Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition.76 As mentioned previously,76 the pathway involved the dinuclear complex 3 is the kinetically favored pathway. Since in the present catalytic system, high catalytic activity is observed, the reaction may continue via formation of compound 3. Then, the compound 3 reacts with NaN3 and benzyl bromide to give the compound 4 which final converts to corresponding 1,2,3-triazole and releases the catalyst for the next catalytic cycle. The formation of Cu acetylide was monitored by FT-IR technique (Figure 8). Gratifyingly, the characteristic absorption peak

corresponding to stretching vibration of Cu-C≡C (2) in the heterogeneous nano catalyst was observed at 1941 cm−1.77 In contrast, in the absence of Na-ascorbate, no peak corresponds to CuC≡C was observed. These results indicate that the heterogeneous Cu(II) catalyst was reduced by sodium ascorbate to give the Cu(I) species which in turns reacted with an alkyne to give the Cu acetylide. To check the potential ability of this catalyst in the Glaser reaction, first phenylacetylene and SIL-Cu(II) was stirred in presence of Na-ascorbate at room temperature for 45 min. Then, the sodium azide and benzyl bromide were added to the reaction mixture. As expected, the click reaction was performed and 1,2,3-triazole product was isolated with high yield and purity in short reaction time. While, if the Glaser coupling reaction could be occurred, the 1,2,3-triazole wasn’t produced. Scheme 5. Proposed Mechanism

Conclusion In conclusion, we have demonstrated a novel copper-containing ionic liquid immobilized on silica nanoparticles (SNIL-Cu(II)) for synthesis of mono- and multi-fold 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3triazoles via three-component reaction. The noteworthy features of this catalytic system are high catalytic activity, ease of separation and reusability of the catalyst, and environmentally-benign reaction conditions. The SNIL-Cu(II) provides the highest TOF so far obtained for a copperimmobilized nano catalyst-promoted Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition under green conditions.
