Popis: In this study, the synthesis of sulfonic acid supported on ferrite–silica superparamagnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4@SiO2@SO3H) as a nanocatalyst with large density of acidic groups is suggested. This nanocatalyst was prepared in three steps: preparation of colloidal iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4 MNPs), coating of silica on Fe3O4 MNPs (Fe3O4@SiO2) and incorporation of sulfonic acid as a functional group on the surface of Fe3O4@SiO2 nanoparticles (Fe3O4@SiO2@SO3H). The properties of the prepared magnetic nanoparticles were characterized using transmission electron microscopy, infrared spectroscopy, vibrating sample magnetometry, X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric analysis. Finally, the applicability of the synthesized magnetic nanoparticles was tested as a heterogeneous solid acid nanocatalyst for one-pot synthesis of diindolyloxindole derivatives in aqueous medium. Oxindole derivatives were produced by the coupling of indole and isatin compounds with good to high yields (60–98%). Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
