In this research, it was displayed an efficient method for the one‐pot reaction of cyclohexanone, benzaldehyde and malononitrile for the synthesis of 4H‐chromenes by using CoFe2O4/lamellar mesopore silica anchored to melamine as a magnetic nanocatalyst. This nanocatalyst was prepared in several steps and discriminated by XRD, FT‐IR, SEM, VSM, TGA and BET techniques. The catalyst has a large active base site that has functionalized in both the surface and the pore of nanostructure. The advantages of magnetic nanocatalyst were simple accessible, heterogeneous nanocatalyst, easy work up and reusability. The various derivatives of 4H‐chromenes were synthesized in the presence of CoFe2O4/lamellar mesopore silica/melamine magnetic nanocatalyst with the excellent yields and appropriate times. The products were identified by the melting point, FT‐IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and C.H.N techniques. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Designing protocols for the preparation of nanocatalyst in order to increase the yield of an organic reaction is a challenging task in modern chemistry. CaMgFe2O4 is a base nanocatalyst that prepared through sol‐gel method. This nanocatalyst has used for the synthesis of 1H‐isocromenes, 4H‐chromenes and ortho‐aminocarbonitrile tetrahydronaphthalenes through the multi‐component reactions. The starting materials for all of the reactions are cyclohexanone, benzaldehyde and malononitrile and the reaction followed with Michael addition and cyclization. Therefore, the different multicomponent reactions from the same materials arranged by using CaMgFe2O4 base nanocatalyst. The catalyst identified with XRD, EDX, SEM, VSM and XPS techniques and the organic compounds recognized with melting point, FT‐IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR analyses. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
