Functionalized Magnetic Graphene Oxide: Synthesis and Application in One- pot Multicomponent Strecker Reaction

Functionalized magnetic graphene oxides derivatives were found to be an efficient and recoverable heterogeneous catalyst for one- pot strecker reaction of aldehydes or ketones and diverse amines using trimethylsilyl cyanide(TMSCN) to afford the corresponding α-aminonitriles at room temperature in ethanol. The procedures of this reaction were completed producing high yields in short times. The catalyst can be easily separated from the reaction mixture and reused in subsequent reactions without significant loss of catalytic activity.
