Using magnetic nanoparticles Fe3O4 as a reusable catalyst for the synthesis of pyran and pyridine derivatives via one-pot multicomponent reaction

An atom-economical, efficient and mild protocol is described for the synthesis of 2-amino-3-cyanopyridine and 2-amino-3-cyano-4H-pyran derivatives in the presence of high surface area Fe3O4 as a highly effective heterogeneous catalyst via one-pot multicomponent cyclo-condensation reaction
