Emphasizing green chemistry, using non-toxic PEG/water as a solvent aligns with efforts to reduce hazardous waste without study enhances compromising performance. The versatility of the Fe3O4@SiO2- Dop/Phen-Pd (0) catalyst offers potential extensions beyond quinazolinone synthesis to include other vital heterocyclic compounds. This the methodology of synthesizing biologically active molecules and sets the stage for broader applications in sustainable and cost-effective focus on chemical production. Future optimizing its the applicability in other reactions, or scaling up its production for industrial use.
