A novel, nano-sized, bis(3-(piperazine-1-yl)propyl)tungstate (BPPT) is introduced as an efficient and reusable organometallic catalyst which is considered as a heterogeneous Bronsted-Lowry base and applied successfully for one-pot synthesis of methyl 2-amino-4-aryl substituted-4H-chromene derivatives with good to excellent yields. BPPT has been prepared via a two-step route from natrium tungstate salt. At first, the oxygens of Na2WO4 react with 1-bromo-3-chloropropane via nucleophilic substitution to produce bis(3-choloro propyl)tungstate. Then nucleophilic substitution of piperazine with chlorines produced bis(3-(piperazine-1-yl)propyl) tungstate. Bis(3-(piperazine-1-yl)propyl) tungstate, which was called BPPT, characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The catalyst is heterogeneous, green and recyclable. It is a thermally stable and its handling is easy. Its catalytic activity is very high and leads to the production of 4H-pyran derivatives with good to excellent yields in short reaction times. Furthermore, molecular modeling studies and ADMETox prediction revealed that not only it can inhibit acetylcholinesterase enzyme and act as an anti-Alzheimer agent but also has no variation from Lipinski's rule of five and can be a good candidate as anti-Alzheimer agents. These above-mentioned facts can be countered as advantages of the current protocol.
