• Multi-walled carbon nanotubes sulfuric acid
• Chlorosulfonic acid
• Imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine
• Isocyanide
• Multi-component reaction

Multi-walled carbon nanotubes sulfuric acid as a reusable heterogeneous stable solid acid catalyst was synthesized from a facile sulfonation of hydroxyl multi-walled carbon nanotubes with chlorosulfonic acid at 0 A degrees C during 2 h. The synthesized catalyst was found to be a highly efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the Groebke-type synthesis of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines through a condensation reaction of an aldehyde, a 2-aminopyridine, and an isocyanide in methanol in excellent yields with short reaction times at room temperature. The catalyst could be easily recovered by simple filtration and reused without losing its activity.
