The aza-Michael addition reactions of amines with alpha,beta-unsaturated carbonyl compounds were efficiently carried out at room temperature under solvent-free condition employing sulfated zirconia as a reusable heterogeneous catalyst. The desired products were formed in short reaction times and in high yields. The bulk and surface properties of the synthesized catalyst was examined by X-ray powder diffraction, BET surface area, temperature programmed desorption of ammonia, scanning electron microscopy and thermogravimetric techniques. Characterization results reveal the super acidic nature of the catalyst.
