Abstract: A procedure for practical synthesis of CuNPs from CuSO4·5H2O is established, under appropriate reaction conditions, using rice (Oryza sativa) as an economic source of reducing as well as a stabilizing agent. Optical and microscopic techniques are employed for the characterization of the synthesized CuNPs and the sizes of the particles were found to be in the range of 8 ± 2 nm. The nanoparticles are used as a catalyst for chemoselective reduction of aromatic nitro compounds to corresponding amines under ambient conditions and water as a reaction medium. Graphic abstract: CuNPs are synthesized using hydrolysed rice and used as catalyst for chemoselective reduction of nitroarenes to their corresponding amines in water.

A novel silver nano magnetic catalyst was devised for dehydrogenative oxidation of aromatic and aliphatic alcohols to the corresponding acid with water as the sole oxygen source and hydrogen gas as the only by-product. The designed catalytic system advantages from easy recovery of magnetic materials i.e. magnetic decantation, being economically viable and environmentally friendly. Furthermore, the catalytic reaction is able to reduce aryl nitro compounds in the absence of any reducing agent.

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.
