Abstract
- Abstract: In the present work, we explored novel CeZrO<subscript>4−δ</subscript> as a catalyst for Knoevenagel condensation of aldehydes with reactive methylene compounds like malononitrile and ethylcyanoacetate. For the present study, ceria, zirconia and CeZrO<subscript>4−δ</subscript> were prepared by gel combustion method and well characterized using XRD, SEM, EDX, BET and TPD analyses, etc. A wide range of aldehydes were effectively condensed over novel CeZrO<subscript>4−δ</subscript> with reactive methylene compounds with high yields. In addition, the CeZrO<subscript>4−δ</subscript> was effectively reused for five consecutive cycles without significant loss in its activity. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first liquid-phase application of pure CeZrO<subscript>4−δ</subscript>.Graphical abstract: [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
