Investigation of halloysite nanotubes and Schiff base combination with deposited copper iodide nanoparticles as a novel heterogeneous catalytic system.

ABSTRACT: The design, preparation and characterization of a novel composite based on functionalization of halloysite nanoclay with Schiff base followed by immobilization of copper iodide as nanoparticles is revealed. This novel nano composite was fully characterized by utilization of FTIR, SEM/EDX, TGA, XRD and BET techniques. This Cu(I) NPs immobilized onto halloysite was successfully examined as a heterogeneous, thus easily recoverable and reusable catalyst in one of classist organic name reaction so-called "Click Reaction". That comprised a three component reaction of phenylacetylene, α-haloketone or alkyl halide and sodium azide in aqueous media to furnish 1,2,3-triazoles in short reaction time and high yields. Remarkably, the examination of the reusability of the catalyst confirmed that the catalyst could be reused at least six reaction runs without appreciable loss of its catalytic activity.
