ABSTRACT: The most important synthesis of phthalimides is the dehydrative condensation of phthalic anhydride at high temperatures with primary amines, when the amine is available. When the amine is not readily accessible, the direct N-alkylation of phthalimides with alcohols under Mitsunobu conditions Phthalimide derivatives synthesis were carried out by conventional methods where, montmorillonite-KSF was used as the reusable clay catalyst. Catalytic reactions are preferred in environmentally friendly green chemistry due to the reduced amount of waste generated as opposed to stoichiometric reactions in which all the reactants are consumed and more side products are formed. Research conducted to improve percentage yield and reduce reaction time by utilizing Montmorillonite as natural reusable catalyst
