Nanosized MCM-41 has been synthesized by sol–gel method. n-Butanesulfonic acid pyridinium hydrogensulfate as protic ionic liquid has been dispersed on the MCM-41 nanoparticles. The morphology of the MCM-41 and MCM-41 supported ionic liquid has been studied by SEM, XRD, BET and FT-IR techniques. The catalytic performance of the nanosized MCM-41 supported ionic liquid was investigated in the Friedlander synthesis of quinolines.
