Thermal Plasma-processed Natural Hydroxyapatite-MnO2 Nanoparticles as a Reusable and Green Heterogeneous Catalyst for Aerobic Oxidation of Benzylic Alkyl Arenes and Alcohols

In the present work, we have reported the in situ oxidation of manganese (II) acetate to MnO2 nanoparticles through the thermal plasma carbonized natural hydroxyapatite (MnO2/TP-NHAp) as a neoteric sustainable method. Interestingly, the thermal plasma-processed surface of the NHAp shows a great ability for oxidation of the manganese (II) without need of any external oxidizing agents. The cataly...

Water oxidation by manganese oxides, a new step towards a complete picture: simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.

We, for the first time, report that many Mn oxides (Mn3O4, α-Mn2O3, β-MnO2, CaMnO3, Ca2Mn3O8, CaMn3O6 and CaMn4O8) in the presence of cerium(IV) ammonium nitrate, in the water oxidation, convert to layered Mn oxide. This layered Mn oxide is an efficient water oxidizing catalyst.

MnO2 spontaneously coated on carbon nanotubes for enhanced water oxidation.

δ-MnO2/o-MWCNTs were synthesized by coating MnO2 spontaneously on oxidized multi-walled carbon nanotubes via simple immersion of the o-MWCNTs into KMnO4 solution. This catalyst comprising the outer region of catalytic MnO2 and the inner region of highly conductive o-MWCNTs enhanced photocatalytic water oxidation activity.

Magnetic NiFe2O4 Nanoparticles as an Efficient Catalyst for the Oxidation of Alcohols to Carbonyl Compounds in the Presence of Oxone as an Oxidant

Nanomagnetic NiFe2O4 was used as the efficient, stable, reusable catalyst for selective oxidation of alcohols to their corresponding carbonyl compounds using oxone (potassium hydrogen monopersulfate) as oxidant in the presence of water as solvent at room temperature. The oxidation of various primary and secondary alcohols has been examined and related corresponding products were obtained wi...
