In this method the snail December 20 2015 shell was used as green and reusable natural catalyst. Excellent yields short reaction times and Accepted 7 April 2016 availability of the catalyst are the advantages of this method.

Introduction Compared with classical methods the heterogeneous catalysis solid-liquid has been shown to have desirable effects on reactions performance such as good yields short reaction times easier work-up procedure formation of pure products in milder conditions and waste minimization. In addition introduction of clean procedures utilizing eco-friendly green catalysts has attracted great attention of Thus development of a mild inexpensive and reusable catalyst for synthesis of organic compounds still remains an attractive goal for researchers. 4H-Pyran derivatives occupy an important place
