The reactions are completed in short times, and the corresponding benzimidazoles are produced with high yields. The present procedure has several advantages, including short reaction times, high yields of products, facile experiment, simple work-up, eco-friendly reaction conditions, and reusability of the catalyst. The catalyst could simply be separated and recovered by an external magnet and reused several times without appreciable loss of catalytic activity.}, keywords = {Fe3O4@SiO2-SO3H,Benzimidazoles,1,2-Phenylenediamine,Aromatic aldehydes,Green synthesis}, url = {https://icc.journals.pnu.ac.ir/article_6303.html}, eprint = {https://icc.journals.pnu.ac.ir/article_6303_c1328bc050f4591c166ed8297df86c2f.pdf} }
