again. According to those analyses can be concluded that
structure of the nanocatalyst and the percentage of iron
loading was not significantly changed or leached.
Conclusions
In summary, a green, cost-effective, magnetic heterogeneous
nanocatalyst, Fe2O3@PEG-400-SO3H, was prepared through
a facile process and completely characterized by FT-IR, FE-
SEM, XRD, EDX, VSM, BET and ICP instrumental analyses.
Then, its catalytic performance was investigated in the syn-
thesis of aminocarbonyl compounds via Mannich MCR. The
products were obtained in high-to-excellent yields at room
temperature under simple reaction conditions. The green
nanocomposite catalyst was easily recovered by an external
magnet and reused efficiently several times without signifi-
cant decrease in its activity.
