Popis: A series of magnetic solid acid nano-catalysts were designed and prepared through a facile co-precipitate approach. The original nanocomposites ZrO2–Al2O3–Fe3O4 were characterized by means of ICP-AES, BET, XRD, TEM, HRTEM, VSM, FT-IR, NH3-TPD and TG. Their catalytic behaviours were investigated via esterification, the synthesis of bis-indolylmethanes, Hantzsch reaction, Biginelli reaction and Pechmann reaction. In all of these organic reactions, the corresponding products were obtained in moderate to excellent yields. The optimal catalyst was ZAF-16/16, which retained catalytic activity after several recycles.
