Title Sulfanilic acid functionalized mesoporous SBA-15: A water-tolerant solid acid catalyst for the synthesis of uracil fused spirooxindoles as antioxidant agents
Type JournalPaper
Keywords Spirooxindole; water-tolerant catalyst; mesoporous silica; antioxidant agent
Abstract Incorporating sulfanilic acid as a hydrophobic Brønsted acid inside the nanospaces of SBA-15 led to a water-tolerant solid acid catalyst, SBA-15-PhSO3H, which showed excellent catalytic performance in synthesis of uracil-fused spirooxindoles in aqueous ethanol. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antioxidant activity by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical-scavenging assay.
