Abstract

The presented study is the first report of the synthesis of terpyridines in the presence of a nanomagnetic catalyst instead of harmful reagents. Herein, Fe3O4@O2PO2(CH2)2NH3+CF3CO2− as a retrievable nanocatalyst with magnetic properties was applied for the multi-component reaction between acetylpyridine derivatives (2 or 3 or 4-isomer), aryl aldehydes and ammonium acetate under conventional heating conditions in the absence of any solvent. The derived terpyridines were obtained with acceptable yields and brief reaction times via a cooperative vinylogous anomeric based oxidation route. Fe3O4@O2PO2(CH2)2NH3+CF3CO2− showed a high capability for recovery and reuse in the mentioned reaction.
