Abstract

In this research, a new magnetic nanocomposite Fe3O4@Saponin/Cu(II) based on quillaja saponin was prepared and the catalyst structure was characterized thoroughly using FT-IR, EDS, TGA, XRD, VSM, HR-TEM, SEM, ICP, BET analyzes. The catalyst prepared in the three-component synthesis of several Betti bases, 1-(α-aminoalkyl)naphthols, under environmentally friendly conditions was used. The advantage of this reaction is the high efficiency of the products and the short reaction time. Furthermore, Fe3O4@Saponin/Cu(II) nano-catalyst is recoverable magnetically and is reusable for other processes with no reduction in its activity.

Keywords: Green chemistry; Nano Fe(3)O(4); Saponin; Three-component; copper(II) chloride.
