Abstract

This research proposes an efficient and easy procedure for the preparation of amides or nitriles from aldehydes. Such materials were prepared via one-pot three component condensation reaction of various aldehydes in the presence of nano-TiCl4.SiO2 as a catalyst under thermal conditions. All reactions proceeded in high yields and in a moderately short reaction time. Meanwhile, oximes were obtained from aldehyeds in the presence of nano-TiCl4.SiO2.
