Sulfamic acid‐functionalized Fe3‐xTixO4 nanoparticles (Fe3‐xTixO4‐SO3H NPs) were fabricated as novel acidic magnetic nanocatalyst by the reaction of Fe3‐xTixO4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) with 3‐chloropropyltrimethoxysilyl urea (TMSPU) followed by functionalization with chlorosulfonic acid. The structure of the synthesized nanocatalyst was studied using different methods including, Fourier‐transform infrared (FT‐IR), field‐emission scanning electron microscopy (FE‐SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), powder X‐ray diffraction (XRD), energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy (EDX), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and dynamic light scattering (DLS). The potential catalytic ability of the synthesized MNPs was studied in one‐pot four‐component condensation reaction between aromatic aldehydes, dimedone, alkyl acetoacetates and ammonium acetate in order to synthesis of hexahydroquinoline derivatives. It was witnessed that the reactions proceeded smoothly under solvent‐free condition with high yields of corresponding hexahydroquinolines.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
