A heterogeneous catalyst was prepared by direct physical encapsulation of nickel Schiff-base complex into the silicon dioxide matrix via sol-gel method. The compounds were characterized by FT-IR, SEM, TEM, XRD, CHNS, and AAS. The catalytic performance in the alcohols and thiols oxidation was investigated in the presence of H2O2 (10 mmol, 30%) as oxidant. After five recycle runs, the catalyst showed 13% reduction in activity with slightly Ni(II)-complex leached to the solvent. Varieties of primary and secondary alcohols were efficiently oxidized to the corresponding ketones. Thiols were oxidized in coupling reaction to disulfides in excellent yields using nano-catalyst with H2O2.
