Synthesis of dihydropyrano[2,3-c]pyrazoles using Ca9.5Mg0.5(PO4)5.5(SiO4)0.5F1.5 as a new nano cooperative catalyst

Review on advancements of pyranopyrazole: synthetic routes and their medicinal applications

Pyranopyrazoles are among the most distinguished, biologically potent, and exciting scaffolds in medicinal chemistry and drug discovery. Synthesis and design of pyranopyrazoles using functional modifications via multicomponent reactions (MCRs) are thoroughly found in synthetic protocols by forming new C-C, C-N, and C-O bonds. This review aims to focus on the biological importance of pyranopyrazoles as well as on a diverse synthetic approach for their synthesis using various catalytic systems such as acid-catalyzed, base-catalyzed, ionic liquids and green media-catalyzed, nano-particle-catalyzed, metal oxide-supported catalysts, and silica-supported catalysts. In this review, we have summarized data on the advancements in synthesizing pyranopyrazole from the last two decades to the mid-2023 and research papers describing the importance of these scaffolds. This review will be significant for synthetic organic chemists and researchers working in organic chemistry.

A designed experiment for CdS-AgBr photocatalyst toward methylene blue

A boosted photocatalytic activity was observed for the CdS-AgBr nanocomposite in the degradation of methylene blue (MB). The experimental design method based on the response surface methodology (RSM) approach used to study the simultaneous interaction effects between the influencing variables. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) of the results confirmed a significant model for processing the data because an F value of 32.34 for the suggested model was higher than that of the critical value of F_{0.05, 14, 13} = 2.55 at 95% confidence interval. This analysis also showed a non-significant lack of fit (LOF) (as a measure of the randomness of the deviations around the obtained data) because the LOF F value of 8.27 was smaller than that of the critical value of F_{0.05, 10, 3} = 8.79. R² values near to unity were achieved (the multiple correlation coefficients R² (R² = 0.9627), adjusted R² (adj-R² = 0.9226), and predicted R² (pred-R² = 0.7423)). Six center points suggested by the model included the following conditions: pH, 6.1; C_MB, 3.5 mg/L; a dose of the catalyst, 0.68 g/L; and irradiation time, 40.5 min. During the center point runs, the degradation efficiencies were obtained in the range of 38 to 43%. The optimal run included pH, 9; catalyst dosage, 1 g/L; irradiation time, 60 min; and C_MB, 2 mg/L, and the best removal efficiency of 98% was achieved during these conditions.
