Abstract

Application of nano SnO2 as an efficient and benign catalyst has been explored for the synthesis of 2-aryl or alkylbenzoxazole derivatives via condensation reaction of aldehyde with 2-aminophenol. The reactions proceed under heterogeneous and mild conditions in ethanol at room temperature to provide 2-aryl or alkylbenzoxazoles in high yields.

Molecular dynamics simulation has been used to investigate the interactions of both chiral forms of Phenylglycine amino-acid with micropores of ZSM5-zeolite. Results show that S-isomers have stronger interactions with zeolite surface in comparison to R-isomers, while R-isomers have the strong interaction with each other which cause their effective passage inside pores with higher diffusion coefficient.
