Nitrogen-doped carbon materials with iron ions are known as catalytic growth agents for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in fuel cells, but the design and synthesis of high-performance and low-cost catalysts still remain a significant challenge. Herein, we present a cost-effective approach to dispose of MF solid waste as the precursor for the synthesis of MCFes catalyst with the favorable structure features such as the high specific surface area, abundant active sites and suitable pore structure. The results showed that the MCFe-10/10/2 had specific surface area as high as 780.7 m2•g-1 and high efficient catalytic activity comparable …

The $N$-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)--Ag(I) complexes 3a-c were synthesized from benzimidazolium chlorides (2a-c = NHC.HCl), incorporating benzyl derivatives and a 2-methoxyethyl group (a: $^{3}$N = 2,4,6-trimethylbenzyl; b: $^{3}$N = 2,3,5,6-tetramethylbenzyl; c: $^{3}$N = pentamethylbenzyl). The compounds were characterized by spectroscopic and elemental analyses. The synthesized NHC-Ag(I) complexes (3a-c) were tested as catalysts for the catalytic three-component coupling reaction of aldehyde, alkyne, and amine to propargylamines in various solvents. All complexes were active catalysts for catalytic three-component coupling reactions with good yields under neat and mild conditions (after 4 h, yields of up to 94%).
