Hyperactive Magnetically Separable Nano-sized MgFe2O4 Catalyst for the Synthesis of Several Five- and Six-Membered Heterocycles

MgFe2O4 nanoparticle ferrites were synthesized by combustion technique using pure ferric nitrate and magnesium nitratecarbonate. The magnetically separable MgFe2O4 MNP’s were found to be hyper active catalyst for the synthesis of a wide range of biologically active five and six-membered heterocyclic moieties at refluxing conditions. Reaction times are lowest in comparison to all reported in literature with excellent yields. Strong electron pull of Fe3+ is responsible for its hyper activity, which has been substantiated by substitution of Fe3+ by other trivalent metal ions.
