Abstract

Magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles as a heterogeneous catalyst were found to be efficient for the synthesis of a series of pyrrole and indole derivatives using three-component reactions of primary amines, 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds, and activated acetylenic compounds under solvent-free conditions at room temperature. The present protocol offers the advantages of clean reaction, short reaction time, high yield, easy purification, and affordability of the catalyst.
