The structures of all the newly synthesized products were characterized by spectroscopic (FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR) and elemental analyses. This method benefits from several advantages such as using easily recoverable magnetic nanocatalyst, simple workup, short reaction time and excellent yields. The prepared nanoparticles were fully characterized by various spectroscopic, thermal and magnetic analyses. The catalyst exhibited good reusability feature and no loss of activity was observed even after 8 successive runs.
