This method has some advantages such as: easy work-up and easy separation of catalyst from the reaction mixture. The in vitro antibacterial activities of some compounds were studied using gram positive and negative microorganisms.}, number={4}, journal={Iranian Journal of Catalysis}, publisher={OICC Press}, author={Bamoniri, Abdolhamid and Pourali, Ali Reza and Nazifi, S.
