Bromine source immobilized on magnetic nanoparticles functionalized with diethylenetriamine was successfully synthesized and characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, vibrating sample magnetometry, thermogravimetric analysis and X‐ray diffraction. The catalytic activity in the synthesis of 2,3‐dihydroquinazoline‐4(1H)‐one and polyhydroquinoline derivatives and in Knoevenagel condensation was studied. The bromine catalyst can be magnetically recovered and reused several times without significant loss of its catalytic activity. All products were obtained in high to excellent yields
