Abstract
tHPA-ZSM-5 nanocomposites as a superior catalyst have been applied for the synthesis of indenopyrazolones through a three-component reaction of phenylhydrazine, benzaldehydes, and indan-1,2,3-trione at room temperature in acetonitrile. The zeolite catalyst has been characterized by X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electronic microscopes, Fourier transform infrared, energy-dispersive spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, and N2-adsorption analysis. The various aromatic aldehydes can be utilized in this method. These results showed that aromatic aldehydes with electron-withdrawing groups reacted faster than aldehydes with electron-releasing groups. Experimental simplicity, excellent yields in short reaction times, reusability of the catalyst, and low catalyst loading are some of the substantial features of this method.

1 Introduction
Pyrazolones show anticancer (Saidachary et al., 2014), antimicrobial (Indrasena et al., 2014), antianalgesic (Khalil et al., 2014), antioxidant (Mazimba et al., 2014), antibacterial (Sivakumar et al., 2014), anti-diabetic (Mor and Sindhu, 2020), antifungal (Mor et al., 2017), antitumor (Rostom, 2006), and anticonvulsant (Ahsan et al., 2013) activities. Indenofused heterocycles have received considerable attention from synthetic chemists and medicinal professionals in recent years (Kaur et al., 2020; Singh et al., 2005, Singh, 2016). These properties make pyrazolones substantial objectives in organic synthesis. The past reports on the synthesis of pyrazolones have mentioned such catalysts as CH3COOH (Mor et al., 2019), [HMIM]HSO4 (Zang et al., 2011), 3-aminopropylated silica gel (Sobhani et al., 2012), sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) (Wang et al., 2005), silica-bonded S-sulfonic acid (Niknam et al., 2010), and Ce/SiO2 composites (Akondi et al., 2016). Each of these catalysts may have its own benefits but also suffer apparent disadvantages including high reaction times, low efficiency, unwanted reaction conditions, and the use of non-green catalysts. Therefore, to avoid these limitations, the discovery of an effective method for the synthesis of pyrazolones is still favored. The facility of accomplishment multicomponent reactions with a recyclable catalyst could advance the efficiency of organic reactions (Alirezvani et al., 2019; Davoodi et al., 2019). Heteropolyacids (HPAs) have polyoxometalate inorganic cages, which may adopt the Keggin structure with the common formula H3MX12O40, where X is the heteroatom and M is the central atom. Generally, M can be either Si or P, and X = Mo or W (Timofeeva, 2003). Immobilization of HPAs on silica structures as support results in more stability and increased catalytic activity (Molnár et al., 1999; Sofia et al., 2009). HPAs have been heterogenized using immobilization of HPAs on zirconium dioxide (Sunita et al., 2008), titanium dioxide (Waghmare et al., 2008), silica (Izumi et al., 1999; Safaei-Ghomi et al., 2020), zeolite (Mukai et al., 2003), and SBA-15 or MCM-41 (Bordoloi et al., 2007; Wang and Zhu, 2004). In this context, among different solid supports, nanocrystalline ZSM-5 zeolite is most preferred because of its many advantageous properties such as high surface area with different active sites, small pore sizes, short diffusion path, excellent chemical and thermal stability, and good accessibility (Liu et al., 2015; Su et al., 2020; Takmil et al., 2021; Xue et al., 2012). Ideally, utilizing environmental and green catalysts which can be easily recycled at the end of reactions has obtained great attention in recent years (Ghanbari et al., 2016; Gholamian et al., 2013). Heterogeneous catalysts are defined as solids or mixtures of solids that accelerate the chemical reaction without themselves undergoing changes (Dai et al., 2021; Karimi-Maleh et al., 2020; Keyikoglu et al., 2022; Orooji et al., 2021; Taherian et al., 2022). Nanostructures exhibit good catalytic activity due to their large surface area and active sites which are mainly responsible for their catalytic activity (Masoumi et al., 2016; Nabiyouni et al., 2015). In the current study, we investigated an easy way for the synthesis of indenopyrazolones through three-component reactions of phenylhydrazine, benzaldehydes, and indan-1,2,3-trione using HPA-ZSM-5 at room temperature in acetonitrile (Scheme 1).

2 Results and discussion
The prepared catalyst was characterized by spectral techniques including X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electronic microscopes (FE-SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDX), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and N2-adsorption analysis, and BET analyses.
FT-IR studies on zeolite ZSM-5 and its immobilized catalysts were carried out (Figure 1). The unmodified product has bands at the following wavenumbers (cm−1): 548 (δSi–O–Si), 796 (νsSi–O–Si), 1,096 (νasSi–O–Si), 1,630 (adsorbed H2O), and 3,448 (νOH). The 796 band was shifted in the phosphomolybdic acids-modified sample to 787 cm−1 that is the result of overlapping with bands δ Mo–O–Mo (754 cm−1) (Javidi et al., 2014). The band of silanol groups shifted in the case of PMA-containing sample only. In addition, a new strong band at 962 cm−1 appeared in the spectra of modified ZSM-5. This band is typical for Keggin’s structure of HPAs and corresponds to νasMo–O–Mo or νasW–O–W vibrations (Amini et al., 2006).

FE-SEM images of ZSM-5 and its immobilized catalyst are provided in Figure 2. After the immobilization, the surfaces of the catalyst were covered with a white translucent substance, and the surfaces became smoother. The particles became larger in size, and their profiles became clearer, indicating that HPA was immobilized on the surface of ZSM-5. The evaluation of the used catalyst structure by FE-SEM evidence that the morphology of the catalyst remained unchanged after the fifth cycle (Figure 2b and c).

EDX analysis (Figure 3) of the catalyst showed the presence of Al, P, O, Si, and Mo elements confirming the formation of the catalytic system as visualized. Elemental mapping images (Figure 3) of the catalyst showed uniform distribution of the elements P and Mo in the desired catalytic system.

EDS of HPA-ZSM-5.
The XRD patterns of ZSM-5 and its immobilized catalyst are shown in Figure 4. In pattern (a), the peaks of high intensity at 23.4°, 24.1°, and 24.6° are the characteristic diffraction peaks of ZSM-5, indicating good crystallinity of our synthesized ZSM-5 (JCPDS = 44-0003). Compared with the ZSM-5 pattern, the HPA-ZSM-5 pattern exhibits all the diffraction peaks of ZSM-5, and the shape and intensity of the diffraction peaks have negligible changes, indicating that the prepared catalysts maintained the good crystallinity of ZSM-5 after the immobilization of the HPA onto ZSM-5.

XRD of ZSM-5 and HPA-ZSM-5.
N2-sorption isotherms at 77 K of ZSM-5 and HPA-ZSM-5 are indicated in Figure 5. As shown in Figure 5, all the isotherms exhibited a typical type IV isotherm with an H1 hysteresis loop starting from P/P 0 = 0.5. The results presented that the BET-specific surface area of ZSM-5 increased from 170 to 240 m2‧g−1 after modification with HPA.

Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) evaluates the thermal stability of HPA-ZSM-5 (Figure 6). A 3% decrease in weight between 100°C and 250°C is because of losing absorbed solvent on the external surface and molecules trapped among HPA-ZSM-5. The curve indicated a weight loss of about 4.5% from 350°C to 550°C due to the decomposition of the phosphomolybdic acid grafting to ZSM-5.

We investigated the reaction of phenylhydrazine, benzaldehyde, and indan-1,2,3-trione as a model reaction. To obtain the ideal reaction conditions for the preparation of compound 4a, we studied the diverse catalysts and solvents (Table 1). Screening of different catalysts containing Et3N, PTSA, nano-ZrO2, CAN, l-proline, nano-TiO2, HPA, ZSM-5, and HPA-ZSM-5 revealed HPA-ZSM-5 (6 mg) as the most effective catalyst to perform this reaction at room temperature (Table 1). Seeking of the reaction scope demonstrated that various aromatic aldehydes can be utilized in this method (Table 2). These results showed that aromatic aldehydes with electron-withdrawing groups reacted faster than aldehydes with electron-releasing groups as expected.

The possibility of recycling the catalyst is an important process from different aspects such as environmental concerns and applicable commercial processes. The reusability of HPA-ZSM-5 was tested for the synthesis of 4a, and it was found that product yields reduced to a small extent on each reuse (run 1, 92%, run 2, 92%, run 3, 92%, run 4, 91%, run 5, 91%, run 6, 90%). After completion of the reaction, HPA-ZSM-5 was separated from the mixture using filtration. HPA-ZSM-5 was rinsed five times with ethanol and dried at room temperature for 15 h.
A mechanism for the preparation of indenopyrazolones using HPA-ZSM-5 is proposed (Scheme 2). First, the activated benzaldehyde by HPA-ZSM-5 is condensed with phenylhydrazine to give intermediate I, which attacks indan-1,2,3-trione to afford the zwitterionic intermediate II. Its tautomer III undergoes an intramolecular nucleophilic addition reaction, which affords product by H-atom-transfer reaction. A highly regiospecific synthesis and crystal structure of indenopyrazolone was reported by Yavari et al. (2012). The cis configuration of the hydroxy groups was proven by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) (both –OH groups are involved in intramolecular H-bond and X-ray crystal) (Lobo et al., 2011; Pilipecz et al., 2007).

3 Conclusion
In conclusion, we demonstrated an effective method for the preparation of indenopyrazolones using HPA-ZSM-5 (6 mg) through a three-component reaction of phenylhydrazine, benzaldehydes and indan-1,2,3-trione at room temperature in acetonitrile. The zeolite catalyst has been characterized by XRD, FE-SEM, FT-IR, EDS, and N2-adsorption analysis. Seeking of the reaction scope demonstrated that various aromatic aldehydes can be utilized in this method. These results showed that aromatic aldehydes with electron-withdrawing groups reacted faster than aldehydes with electron-releasing groups as expected. The advantages of this method include its great yields in concise times, the retrievable of the catalyst, low catalyst loading, and an easy work-up method.
Experimental
Chemicals and apparatus
NMR spectra were recorded on Bruker Avance-400 MHz spectrometers in the presence of tetramethylsilane as the internal standard. The infra red spectra were recorded on the FT-IR Magna 550 apparatus using KBr discs. Melting points were determined on Electrothermal 9200 and were not corrected. The elemental analyses (C, H, N) were obtained using a Carlo ERBA Model EA 1108 analyzer. The XRD patterns were recorded on an X-ray diffractometer (PHILIPS, PW 1510, Netherlands) using Cu-Kα radiation (λ = 0.154056 nm) in the range 2θ = 0.8–10°. FE-SEM of nanocatalyst was visualized by SEM (MIRA3). EDS measurement was carried out with the SAMX analyser. The N2 adsorption/desorption analysis (BET) was performed using an automated gas adsorption analyser (BEL SORP mini II).
Preparation of ZSM-5
The zeolite precursor was prepared by adding tetrapropylammonium hydroxide, tetraethyl orthosilicate to a mixed aqueous solution of aluminium isopropoxide [Al(ίPro)3], and NaOH with stirring. The mixture was converted to gel. The gel was stirred for 20 h. The mole composition of the gel was 1Al2O3:46SiO2:4TPA:5Na2O:2,500H2O. The resulting gel was sealed in Teflon-lined autoclaves and heated at 165°C for 72 h. The solid product was recovered by filtration, washed with deionized water several times, and dried in an oven at 100°C overnight. The as-synthesized material was then calcined at 550°C for 8 h to remove the templates.
Preparation of HPA-ZSM-5
ZSM-5 zeolites (1 g) were added to the solution of 0.3 g of phosphomolybdic acid (HPA) in ethanol (25 mL), and the reaction mixture was stirred for 24 h. The mixture was filtered, washed with deionized water several times, and dried in an oven at 100°C overnight. The as-synthesized material was subjected to product HPA-ZSM-5 at 400°C for 2 h.
General procedure for the synthesis of indenopyrazolones
A mixture of phenylhydrazine (1.0 mmol), benzaldehydes (1.0 mmol), ninhydrin (1.0 mmol) and 6 mg of HPA-ZSM-5 in acetonitrile (10 mL) was stirred for the appropriate times. After completion of the reaction thin layer chromatography , the catalyst was separated from the mixture using filtration. The solvent was evaporated, and the residue was washed with cold diethyl ether to get a pure product.
