Fe3O4 nanoparticles: A powerful and magnetically recoverable catalyst for the synthesis of novel calix[4]resorcinarenes

Magnetically Recoverable Silica-Decorated Ferromagnetic-Nanoceria Nanocatalysts and Their Use with O- and N-Butyloxycarbonylation Reaction via Solvent-Free Condition

Silica-decorated ferrite nanoparticles, a new kind, coated with ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN), have been prepared successfully by simple coprecipitation techniques. Powder X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (PXRD), Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), field emission-scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), wavelength-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (WDX), energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), inductive coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) techniques were used to characterize these nanoparticles. The catalysts are further studied for catalytic activity in solvent-free conditions. Importantly, these nanoparticles have been collected from the reaction mixture using an external magnet and recycled up to minimum of 15 cycles with no substantial loss of catalytic characteristics.

Poly(pyrrole-co-o-toluidine) wrapped CoFe2O4/R(GO–OXSWCNTs) ternary composite material for Ga3+ sensing ability

A ternary P(Py-co-OT)/CF/R(GO–OXSWCNTs) nanocomposite has been fabricated as a novel conductive hybrid material with high stability and excellent electrochemical Ga³⁺ sensing ability.

A highly efficient magnetic solid acid nanocatalyst for the synthesis of new bulky heterocyclic compounds

Fe₃O₄nanoparticles were coated with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and further chemically modified with maleic anhydride to generate Fe₃O₄@APTES·MAH NPs. Then some new bulky heterocyclic compounds were synthesized using this catalyst.
