A New Supported Manganese-Based Coordination Complex as a Nano-Catalyst for the Synthesis of Indazolophthalazinetriones and Investigation of Its Antibacterial Activity

Abstract A new magnetic supported manganese-based coordination complex (Fe3O4@SiO2@CPTMS@MBOL@ Mn) was prepared in consecutive stages, characterized via various techniques (VSM, SEM, TEM, XRD, FT-IR, EDX, TG-DTA and ICP) and used as a capable nano-catalyst for the fast and green synthesis of divers 2H-indazolo[2,1-b]phthalazine-1,6,11(13H)-triones in a simple and efficient procedure from the one pot three-component condensation reaction of aldehydes, dimedone and phthalhydrazide in refluxed ethanol in excellent yields and fast reaction times. The Mn catalyst can be recycled and reused without notable loss of the catalytic activity. Also, the antibacterial properties of the Mn supported nano-catalyst were studied against a number of gram-positive and gram-negative bacterial strains.
