It was prepared by replacing the exchangeable Na+ cations of a homoionic Na–bentonite with cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTMAB) cations. The catalyst was characterized by XRD, BET and SEM. The BET data and XRD patterns showed that the surfactant ions enter the interlayer space of catalyst. In order to study the catalytic properties, we carried out a one-pot practical, efficient and green multicomponent synthesis of 4H-benzo-[b]-pyran derivatives in terms of high yield, simple experimental procedure, low reaction time and simple work-up.}, number={4}, journal={Iranian Journal of Catalysis}, publisher={OICC Press}, author={Sedaghat, Mohammad Ebrahim and Farhadi, Faranak and Nazarifar, Mohammad Reza and Kamareji, Rezvan Sheikhi}, year={2024}, month={Feb.}, keywords={One-pot synthesis, Hydrophobic-bentonite, Green chemistry, Pyran derivatives, Multi-component reactions} }
