Abstract
In this paper, an eco-compatible molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) nanoreactor synthesized via miniemulsion polymerization was designed, and its catalytic activity was investigated in multicomponent reaction transformations for the first time. The synthesized MIP nanoreactor was characterized by means of Fourier transform infrared, thermogravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and dynamic light scattering. The imidazole template-derived sites created within a polymeric matrix allow MIP nanoreactors to directly catalyze the reaction and conduct the target molecule. The results show the applicability of MIP nanoreactors in a one-pot expeditious synthesis of tri- and tetrasubstituted imidazole derivatives via pseudo-four- and four-component reactions with excellent yields and purities. In addition, biocompatibility and cytotoxicity of MIP nanoparticles were examined, and no obvious adverse effects on the viability of human fib...
