Mn-porphyrin complex was anchored coordinatively to silica-coated surface of magnetic nanoparticles (SMNP). Afterward, a heterogeneous nanocatalyst (Fe3O4@SiO2-MnTCPP) has been characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and transmission electron microscope (TEM). A thermal stability up to around 350°C was verified for prepared nanocatalyst based on thermogravimetric analysis. Finally, the catalytic performance of magnetically recoverable Mn-catalyst was exploited in the green oxidation of different sulfides with urea hydrogen peroxide (UHP) in the presence of imidazole as co-catalyst in ethanol under heterogeneous conditions. The eco-friendly property of ethanol strongly induced us to employ it as the reaction solvent in this oxidation system. Complete conversion (≥99) of sulfides to the corresponding sulfoxide or sulfones was obtained for ethyl phenyl sulfide, phenyl vinyl sulfide, diallyl sulfide, thiocyanatoethane, 2-ethyl mercaptoethanol and tetrahydrothiophene. Moreover, the recovered catalysts keep constant conversion yield up to at least three cycles.

An operationally simple continuous flow generator of “dark” singlet oxygen has been developed. The singlet oxygen was efficiently reacted with several chemical traps to give the corresponding oxygenated products in high yields. The developed “dark” singlet oxygen generator has been successfully applied in the synthesis of the antimalarial drug artemisinin.
Highly efficient continuous flow reactions using singlet oxygen as a "Green" reagent

Described is a new method for the efficient in situ production of singlet oxygen in a simple continuous flow photochemical reactor. The extremely large interfacial area generated by running the biphasic mixture in a narrow channel at a high flow rate ensures high throughput as well as fast and efficient oxidation of various alkenes, 1,3-dienes, and thioethers on a preparative scale.
