A thermosensitive nanocatalyst was prepared in the reaction of water-soluble iron(III) porphyrins and thermosensitive polymeric nanospheres with a core-shell structure; its catalytic activity in cyclohexene oxidation by iodosylbenzene was dependent markedly on reaction temperatures in aqueous solution.

A strategy for the electrochemical detection of DNA based on catalytic hairpin assembly combined with nanocatalyst label-based redox cycling reaction signal amplification. A superior detection limit of 0.3 aM toward DNA can be achieved.

Alkanedisulfamic acid functionalized silica-coated magnetic nanoparticles (ADSA-MNPs) were used as effective, low-cost and reusable solid heterogeneous nanomagnetic catalysts for conversion of aldehydes and ketones to corresponding gem-dihydroperoxides and 1,2,4,5-tetraoxanes using aqueous hydrogen peroxide (30% w/w in H2O) at room temperature. These compounds are important ...

This study reports a new methodology for the efficient synthesis of trisphenol compounds using the reaction of 2,6-bis(hydroxymethyl) phenols with phenols under heterogeneous conditions. A sulfonated reduced graphene oxide (RGO-SO3H) nanocatalyst was used to promote the reaction under solvent-free conditions. A range of trisphenol compounds were produced in the presence of this c...

A highly efficient one-pot three-component protocol was devised for the synthesis of novel derivatives ((phenylethlidene)hydrazinyl)thiazol-4(5H)one by reaction acetophenone derivatives, ethyl chloroacetate and thiosemicarbazide, in ethanol at room temperature presence copper supported hydroxyapatite-encapsulated-γ-Fe2O3 (γ-Fe2O3@HAp@CPTMS@AT@Cu(ӀI)) as new magnetically recyclable heterogeneous...

a new recoverable molybdenum nanocatalyst was prepared by immobilization  of a schiff base ligand on the surface of silica coated magnetite nanoparticles (fe3o4@sio2) through condensation reaction between 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane and 2-hydroxy1-naphthaldehyde and succeeding reaction with dioxomolybdenum(vi) acetylacetonate (moo2(acac)2). the synthesized catalyst was characterized by induct...

While precious metals are available to a very limited extent, there is an increasing demand to use them as catalyst. This is also true for palladium (Pd) catalysts and their sustainable recycling and production are required. Since Pd catalysts exist nowadays mostly under the form of nanoparticles, these particles need to be produced in an environment-friendly way. Biological synthesis of Pd nan...
