A simple approach for component reaction between aldehydes, anilines or ammonium acetate, and dimedone in ethanol as a solvent is studied using Ag-SiO۲ nanoparticles. This approach results for the synthesis of various decahydroacridines in appropriate yields (۸۰-۹۴%). The use of Ag-SiO۲ nanoparticles as a heterogeneous catalyst lets a clean procedure.
