The whole mixture was further heated gently on a hot
magnetic stirrer plate with occasional stirring until the
white solid is free flowing. The resultant catalyst was fur-
ther activated in a hot air oven maintained at 120ꢀC for at
24 hours prior to use.

3.2 | General procedure for the synthesis
of compounds 4(a-f), 6(a-c), and 8 (a-b)
To a mixture of 1 mmol of Amine (2), 2 mmol of Formalde-
hyde (3) was added. Subsequently 1 mmol of Substituted-
Phenol (1)/naphthol (5 or 7) and 1 g of the prepared
catalyst was added and then stirred at room temperature
for 5 to 10 minutes. The progress of the reaction was moni-
tored by TLC. After the completion of the reaction, the
reaction mixture was first washed with ethyl acetate and
the filtrate was dried using BUCHI Rotavapor R-300. The
catalyst after washing was kept to dry in a hot air oven for
further use. The synthesized compound was then separated
and purified by Column chromatography using hexane:
ethylacetate mixture. Further confirmation of the synthe-
sized compound was done by spectral analysis data such as
melting point, IR, NMR, and mass spectroscopy.

3 | EXPERIMENTAL SECTION
All the chemicals and reagents were purchased from
Merck and HiMedia and were used without further purifi-
cation. The synthesized compounds were characterized by
checking its melting point, IR, H1 NMR, C13 NMR, and
Mass spectroscopy. All the evaporation process after reac-
tion completion and Column chromatography completion
was done using BUCHI Rotavapor R-300. Melting point
was determined in open capillary tubes using IKON melt-
ing point apparatus and the results were uncorrected. FT-
IR Perkin Elmer instrument was used to record the IR
spectra using Kbr and FT-NMR Bruker Avance-II spec-
3.3 | Antibacterial studies
All the synthesized compounds were screened for their
antibacterial activity against two gram-positive bacteria
viz. B.s. and S.a., and two gram-negative bacteria viz. E.c.,
and K.p.. Well diffusion method was used for the in vitro
antibacterial studies and the activity was determined by
measuring the diameter of inhibition zones (mm), also
the MIC were determined by means of standard 2-fold
serial broth dilution method.18 DMSO concentration of
2 mg/mL of was used where DMSO was used as a−ve
control and Streptomycin was used as a+ve control.
1
trometer (400 MHz) was used to record the H NMR and
13C NMR spectra where CDCl3 was used as the solvent.
For mass spectroscopy, Compact Mass Spectrophotometer
APCI Expression-S instrument was used. Progress of the
reaction was monitored by TLC using TLC silica gel 60 Alu-
minum backed F254 which was developed in UV chamber
as well as in iodine chamber. For isolation and separation
process Column Chromatography was performed using Sil-
ica Gel 100-200 mesh.
4 | CONCLUSIONS
In this present study we have successfully synthesized a
series of 1,3-oxazines using an efficient and environmen-
tal friendly catalyst through a one-pot, three-component
condensation reaction. The synthesized compounds were
characterized by their melting point, 1H NMR, 13C NMR,
and mass spectroscopy. They were also screened for their
antibacterial activity which included determination of
zone of inhibition and MIC. Compounds like 8a, 4e, and
4f showed promising property as it gave the best
antibacterial activity against all bacterial strains.

About 4 g of NaCl was dissolved in 20 mL of distilled water
and to it 10 g of SiO2 (100-200 mesh) was added and then
