The magnetic Fe3O4-SiO2-(CH2)3N+Me3Br3–, was characterized by infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscope (TEM) and vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). The method offers several advantages including high yields, short reaction time, simple work-up procedure and catalyst reusability for several runs. The catalyst could be readily separated by using a magnetic force and reused six times without any significant loss of catalytic activity.
