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.

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.

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.

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.
