Abstract

An efficient and simple protocol is described for synthesis of coumarin derivatives using Mg–Al-CO3 and Ca–Al-CO3 hydrotalcite as an environmental friendly and reusable heterogeneous catalyst under solvent free conditions. The catalysts were characterized by Hammett titration, SEM and XRD data. Present study revealed that catalytic activity and basicity depend on compositions of hydrotalcite. The calcined hydrotalcite with an Mg/Al of 3:1 derived from calcinations at 750K was found to be suitable catalyst that gives the highest basicity and the best catalytic activity for this reaction. Catalyst allows short reaction time, high catalytic activity, easy to work up and is reusable. Step economy, atom efficiency and solvent free conditions are some important salient features of this protocol.
