A novel organic-inorganic hybrid nanomaterial namely nano-[SiO2@R-Im-SO3H][CF3COO] (NSRISC) was synthesized, and characterized using FT-IR, EDS, FE-SEM, TGA and XRD analyses. Thereafter, the solvent-free production of bis-coumarins (from aryl aldehydes and 4-hydroxycoumarin) and N,Nâ²-alkylidene bisamides (from aryl aldehydes and benzamide) was catalyzed by NSRISC. Bis-coumarins were produced in 86-97% at 100 ºC, and bisamides were obtained in 87-97% at 105 ºC. The reaction times were 15-30 min for both kinds of compounds.
