Abstract

In this study, we have designed, synthesized and full characterized a novel biological based acidic nano organocatalyst via condensations reaction of uric acid and phosphorous acid. The obtained compound was named theacrine tetrakis(phosphonic acid) (TTPA) and prepared under refluxing ethanol. This new nano organocatalyst was applied as an efficient and recyclable catalyst for the preparation of novel pyridines with indole moieties via a cooperative vinylogous anomeric based oxidation with good to excellent yields.
