Preparation of CuO/SiO2catalyst has been done via sol-gel method using copper nitrate solution and TEOS as precursors. Several instruments such as FT-IR, SEM, EDAX, XRD and particle sizer were employed to characterize the obtained material. Then, CuO/SiO2 catalyst was successfullyusedin the synthesis of three curcumin derivatives, 4,4'-((1E,1'E)-(1H-pyrazole-3,5-diyl)bis(ethene-2,1-diyl))bis(2-methoxyphenol) (Compound 1), 4,4'-((1E,1'E)-(1phenyl-1H-pyrazole-3,5-diyl)bis(ethene-2,1-diyl))bis(2-methoxyphenol) (Compound 2) and 4,4'-((1E,1'E)-(isoxazole-3,5-diylbis(ethene-2,1-diyl))bis(2-methoxyphenol) (Compound 3) with good yields.
