In this study, the immobilization of copper nanoparticles on superparamagnetic montmorillonite, MMT?Fe3O4?Cu, was studied. Magnetically nanoparticles (MNPs) of iron oxide (Fe3O4) were primarily prepared by a chemical co-precipitation method. Next, the prepared Fe3O4 MNPs were intercalated within the interlamellar spaces and external surface of sodium-exchanged montmorillonite. Finally, Cu NPs were immobilized on magnetic montmorillonite by a simply mixing of an aqueous solution of CuCl2·2H2O with MMT?Fe3O4 followed by the reduction with NaBH4. Characterization of MMT?Fe3O4 clay system represented that through the immobilization of Fe3O4 MNPs, disordered-layers structure of MMT was easily reorganized to an ordered-layers arrangement. The synthesized composite systems were characterized using FT-IR, SEM, EDX, XRD, VSM, BET and ICP-OES analyses. SEM analysis exhibited that dispersion of Cu NPs, with the size distribution of 15–25 nm, on the surface of magnetic clay was taken place perfectly. BET surface analysis indicated that after the immobilization of Fe3O4 and Cu species, the surface area and total pore volume of MMT?Fe3O4?Cu system was decreased. Next, the Cu-clay nanocomposite system showed a perfect catalytic activity towards reduction of nitroarenes to anilines as well as reductive-acetylation of nitroarenes to acetanilides using NaBH4 and Ac2O in water as a green and economic solvent. The copper magnetic clay catalyst can be easily separated from the reaction mixture by an external magnetic field and reused for six consecutive cycles without the significant loss of its catalytic activity.

Abstract: Ni2B@Cu2O and Ni2B@CuCl2 are introduced as simple and efficient earth-abundant transition-metal-based nanocomposites for the?green one-pot reductive acetylation of aromatic nitro compounds and direct N-acetylation of arylamines using a solvent-free mechanochemical grinding technique. The designed Ni2B-based nanocomposites were characterized by Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy. Notable advantages of these methods include broad substrate scope, use of a solvent-free mechanochemical grinding technique, implementation of earth-abundant transition-metal-based nanocomposites as simple and practical catalysts, and short reaction time and high yield at ambient condition. The mentioned methods can also be successfully applied for the?synthesis of a broad range of other amides (especially substituted acetamides) using green chemistry protocols. Also, the recoverability and reusability of the mentioned new nanocomposites were investigated. Graphical abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.].
