[ 1 ] - SnCl4/nano-sawdust as an Efficient Bio-based Catalyst for the Synthesis of 2-Substituted Benzothiazoles and Benzimidazoles

SnCl4/nano-sawdust was prepared as a carbohydrate-based catalyst containing of tin bearing cellulose units. The catalyst was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The catalyst was applied successfully as a readily available, inexpensive, biodeg...
