Metal Mediated Polyaniline (PANI) Composite catalyst

The catalyst plays an important role in the synthetic chemistry in this book we have described the synthesis of Polyaniline and Metal doped Polyanilne as a versatile catalyst. The Cobalt Chloride Doped Polyaniline (Co-PANI) composite catalyst was synthesized employing the chemical doping method. Polyaniline was fabricated through the chemical oxidation technique at a low temperature range of 0 to 30°C. As compare to the Polyaniline, the metal doped polyamine has greater catalytic activity. The synthesized catalyst were characterised by the SEM, XRD, FTIR and TGA-DTA analytical Method. The synthesised both Polyaniline (PANI) and Cobalt Chloride Doped Polyaniline (Co-PANI) catalyst used in the synthesis of 3,4- Dihydropyrimidin-2 (1H) ones as the multicomponent reaction (MCRs).
