Abstract
In this work, a heterogeneous, stable and inexpensive catalyst of iron (III) fluoride (FeF3) under visible light conditions is used to catalyze the two component reaction of aldehyde and hydroxyl amine hydrochloride for the synthesis of nitriles in high yields (82-98 %) over a short reaction time (10-55) minutes. Utilization of visible light for this reaction can generate a highly green protocol in the terms of easy experimental workup, excellent yields, short reaction times and minimum pollution of the environment. It facilitates recovery and reusability of the catalyst by simple filtration and recycled up to four consecutive runs without losing the activity of the catalyst.
