Abstract

Despite the recent advancements in ionic liquids, incorporating these liquids into solid networks, particularly ionogels, to achieve new properties such as improved thermal and electrical conductivity and better mechanical and rheological attributes has been challenging. This study reports a novel magnetic ionogel using carbomer as a simple and cost-effective matrix. The catalytic activity of this new matrix was evaluated in a Knoevenagel reaction followed by a Michael addition, which resulted in synthesizing a diverse range of pyranopyrazole derivatives at room temperature in just 3–5 h. This approach was found to be tolerant of various functional groups and utilized low-cost reagents, leading to a robust synthesis and moderate to high yields ranging from 74 to 96%. The morphology of the magnetic ionogel was investigated through SEM and TGA spectroscopy. The catalyst was reused for up to five consecutive runs with excellent yield in a one-pot multicomponent reaction.
