We intended to convert proline as a homogeneous catalyst to a heterogeneous catalyst by prolination of MWCNTs to improve proline efficiency as a catalyst by the ease of separating, catalytic economy, reusability, etc. To reach these goals, we sketched Pro-MWCNT catalyst and characterized it by different analyses such as FT-IR, SEM, EDX, CHNS. The efficiency of this heterogeneous catalyst was investigated and compared with proline homogeneous catalyst in Mannich reaction. The results hold out improvements in stereoselectivity, ease of separating and reusability.
