In this work, we have reported the synthesis of a series of heterogeneous catalysts, viz., [HMIm]3[PW12O40]@­MOF-Fe, [HMIm]3[PMo12O40]@­MOF-Fe, and [HMIm]4[SiW12O40]@­MOF-Fe, by a simple impregnation method. The catalysts were characterized by several techniques, such as FTIR, EDX, XRD, SEM, element...
