Abstract	Researchers synthesized a magnetically supported ionic liquid on Fe3O4@SiO2 nanoparticles (MNPs@ SiO2-IL) as a recoverable catalyst for the one-pot synthesis of 1,3-thiazolidin-4-ones in high to excellent yield under solvent-free conditions. The catalyst could be easily recovered by magnetic separation and recycled 10 times without significant loss of its catalytic activity.
