We synthesized a porous multifunctional metal-organic-framework (MOF) [UiO-66-Mel-NHC10H5(SO3H)2] based on zirconium by post-synthetic modification of UiO-66-NH2. The obtained MOF was prepared easily by attaching the cyanuric chloride chemically and then attaching 7-amino naphthalene-1,3-disulfonic acid on UiO-66-NH2. Afterward, the synthesized solid was applied as a very effective multifunctional catalyst in one-pot Mannich sequences to transform aromatic aldehydes and acetophenone derivatives, acetyl chloride, and acetonitrile to ß-acetamido ketone products. This technique was facile, clean, and economically justified and used only 0.01 g of the catalyst during the reaction. The easy setup, nontoxic solvent, enhanced yield, short reaction times, and high catalyst durability are among the marked benefits of this synthesis method. Furthermore, the turnover frequency was 33.3-108.8 h-1, which is comparable to the values previously reported for this process. Overall, the high catalytic activity observed from UiO-66-Mel-NHC10H5(SO3H)2 might be because of the obtained high surface area and the synergistic features created between Lewis acidic Zr nodes and Brønsted free acidic SO3H groups.
