N-doped porous carbons incorporating highly-dispersed non-noble metallic cobalt (Co) nanoparticle materials were synthesized by rapid pyrolysis of a zeolitic-type metal-organic framework (ZIF-9) and their structures, morphologies, topologies and relevant physical and chemical properties were fully measured by different characterization technologies. The resulting derived Co/CN materials were further evaluated as catalysts in nitrobenzene hydrogenation. It was found that Co/CN materials showed remarkbly catalytic activity and chemoselectivity for mild hydrogenation of nitrobenzene. Amongst the studied a series of Co/CN-x (pyrolyzed at x °C) materials, sample Co@CN-800 shows the most superior catalytic activity for hydrogenation of nitrobenzene. In particular, the catalytic conversion activity of Co@CN-800 is 100% with aniline being the sole product at 70 °C for 2 h, 27.5 times higher than that of cobalt powder (Co). It is believed that the large pore size, adsorption of nitroarenes substrate with high selectivity and strong interaction of Co nanoparticles with the doped N species can result in the high activity of Co@CN-800. This work therefore offers a cost-effective approach in developing highly efficient catalytic materials towards mild hydrogenation of nitrobenzene.

In the field of catalysis, material scientists pay much attention to tuning the activity and chemoselectivity of metal nanoparticles. Herein, we design and successfully synthesize a series of Co NPs which show high performance on hydrogenation of nitroarenes with both activity and chemoselectivity. Co0.15@C/PC preferentially activates the -C=O bond over -NO2 in water with ammonia borane (AB); however, when the hydrogen source is changes to hydrazine hydrate (HH), the results are the opposite. The Co-based catalyst exhibits exceptionally high catalytic activity (with a TOF value of 10512 h-1, which is approximately 100 times than the akin catalysts) and chemo-selectivity for the hydrogenation of nitro compounds under mild conditions. Additionally, the catalyst can be separated easily by a magnet and shows prominent stabilit, which means that it can be reused for at least 10 cycles.

P, Se-codoped g-C3N4 (PSeCN) nanosheet was in situ prepared by facile thermal polymerization of melamine, phosphonitrilic chloride trimer, and selenium black powder as the precursors. It was found as a suitable support for the immobilization of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs). The prepared nanocatalyst was fully characterized via standard analysis methods including EDX, ICP-OES, XRD, FT-IR, SEM, TEM, and BET. This PSeCN/Ag nanocatalyst with a higher specific surface area compared with CN, showed excellent catalytic activity towards the reduction of several nitroaromatic compounds using sodium borohydride (NaBH4) in short reaction times with high efficiency and good selectivity in water as a green solvent. Significantly, the above-mentioned nanocomposite could be reused six times without appreciable loss of its catalytic activity.

The iron oxide was successfully supported on activated clay/carbon through an experimentally viable protocol for both hydrations of nitrile to amide and reduction of nitro compounds to amines. The as-prepared catalyst has been extensively characterised by XPS, SEM-EDX, TEM, TGA, BET surface area measurements and powdered X-ray diffraction (PXRD). A wide variety of substrates could be converted to the desired products with good to excellent yields by using water as a green solvent for both the reactions. The catalyst was recyclable and reusable up to six consecutive cycles without compromising its catalytic proficiency. Graphical abstract: Activated Mont K10 carbon-supported Fe2O3 is a very efficient and versatile heterogeneous catalytic system for hydration of nitriles to amides and reduction of nitro compounds to amines and can be reused up to six consecutive cycles without significant loss in catalytic activity.[Figure not available: see fulltext.].

Highly nitrogen-doped mesoporous carbon (N-mC) material incorporated cobalt oxide nanoparticles was synthesized through simple pyrolysis of environmentally friendly chitosan-polyaniline-Co(OAc)2 precursor in one-step. The as-prepared catalyst named CoO&at;N-mC with 14.65 ?wtpercent nitrogen content was characterized by different analysis techniques. The heterogeneous catalyst exhibits outstanding catalytic activity for the reduction of a variety of nitroaromatic compounds in the presence of NaBH4 as a reducing agent in water as a green solvent at 75 ?°C. Utilization of natural biological macromolecules such as chitosan as green and cheap starting material with harmless aniline and earth-abundant cobalt salt, facile synthesis, excellent product yield, short reaction time, high chemoselectivity, sustainable and mild reaction condition, and reusability of catalyst for at least five cycles without any significant decline in the catalytic efficiency are some prominent merits of this new nanocatalyst.

A heterogeneous magnetic catalytic system is fabricated and suitably applied for the fast and direct conversion of nitrobenzene (NB) derivatives to their aniline forms. For this purpose, different conditions and methods have been checked with numerous catalytic amounts of the nanocatalyst composite, which was constructed of iron oxide and silver nanoparticles and possessed an isothiazolone organic structure. Herein, the mechanistic aspect of the catalytic functioning of this highly efficient nanocatalyst is highlighted and discussed. Firstly, a convenient preparation route assisted by ultrasonication for this metal and metal oxide nanocomposite is presented. Further, a fast and direct reduction strategy for NBs is investigated using ultrasound irradiation (50 kHz, 200 W L-1). As two great advantages of this catalyst, high magnetic property and excellent reusability are also mentioned. This report well reveals that a really convenient conversion of NBs to anilines can be achieved with a high yield during the rapid reaction time in presence of mild reaction conditions.

Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were modified with carboxylic acid functional groups (MWCNTs-(COOH)n) prior to decoration with Fe3O4 nanoparticles. A further modification step by polyethyleneimine (PEI) resulted in Fe3O4-MWCNTs?PEI which provided a suitable platform for coordination and in situ reduction of silver ions to obtain an Fe3O4-MWCNTs?PEI-Ag nanocomposite with highly dispersed Ag nanoparticles. The Fe3O4-MWCNTs?PEI-Ag hybrid material was characterized by various techniques such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and was used as an efficient catalyst for chemoselective reduction of nitroaromatic and nitrile compounds to their corresponding amines in aqueous solution at ambient temperature. Nitrofurazone, a cytotoxic antibiotic, as a non-aromatic example was also reduced selectively at the nitro group without reduction of the other functionalities in the presence of Fe3O4-MWCNTs?PEI-Ag. The catalyst was magnetically recoverable and maintained its activity for at least six cycles without considerable loss of efficiency.

The production of water-soluble and stable metallic nanoparticles that can act as recoverable catalysts still remains a challenge. Herein we report the behavior of a series of water-soluble platinum nanoparticles containing different sulfonated NHC ligands as recoverable catalysts for the hydrogenation of aromatic compounds in pure water. The NHC-protected nanoparticles are found to be active and, in general, can be reutilized with no loss of activity or selectivity, although differences are observed depending on the substitution of the NHC ligand or on the substrate being hydrogenated. Pt leaching was determined to be only 0.03-0.29%. TEM images reveal that the shape of the nanoparticles remains unaltered after catalysis. However, the size of the particles increased, although with no influence on their catalytic properties in many instances.

Herein we present an efficient methodology for the microwave-assisted peroxidative oxidation of benzyl alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes by using a novel and stable tetrazole-saccharinate zinc(II) catalyst, along with some insights into the reaction mechanism. This methodology is distinguished by the use of easily available and cheap reagents on the genesis of the zinc catalyst, mild reaction conditions, very short reaction periods (5–20 min) and no need to add an organic solvent. Furthermore, the use of TBHP (70percent. aq.) as oxidizing agent turn this protocol a convenient one for benzyl alcohol oxidation in yields up to 98percent.

Abstract: Curcumin [(1E, 6E)-1,7-bis(4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-phenyl)-1,6-heptadiene-3,5-dione] is a low molecular weight yellow-orange polyphenolic pigment extracted from the powdered rhizome of Curcuma longa. Curcumin has wide medicinal applications as an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, cancer chemopreventive, and potentially chemotherapeutic agents as well as stabilizer/reducing agent in silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) synthesis. However, the low solubility of curcumin in aqueous solutions limits its applications and also, many of AgNP synthetic processes lack a greener synthetic route. In the present work, a Schiff base of curcumin is synthesized condensing curcumin and 1,4-diaminobutane in 2:1 ratio. The resulting product shows improvement in solubility in water and favours the synthesis of AgNPs in aqueous medium at room temperature, acting as a self-reducing/stabilizing agent. This proposed synthetic route is simple, feasible and green. The size and morphology of AgNPs are analyzed by TEM, SEM, EDS and XRD techniques. The recyclable AgNPs as a heterogeneous catalyst in the reduction of nitroaromatics to amino compounds is environmentally benign and can be re-used up to 5th cycle without considerable loss of its catalytic activity. Moreover, both Cur-1,4 and AgNPs show bactericidal properties against bacterial strains (Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) which find medicinal importance in future. Graphic abstract: A greener approach has been proposed for the preparation of AgNPs stabilized on curcumin based Schiff base. The AgNPs finds applications as efficient, easily recyclable heterogenous catalyst in the reduction of nitroaromatics to environmentally benign aminoaromatics as well as an antibacterial agent.[Figure not available: see fulltext.].
