Item Immobilized magnetic nano catalyst for oxidation of alcohol(Elsevier, 2015) Bhat, P.B.; Rajarao, R.; Sahajwalla, V.; Badekai Ramachandra, B.R.Covalent attachment of Schiff base on magnetic nanoparticles yielded good selectivity for oxidation of alcohols. The ferromagnetic interaction in the complex added comprehensive advantage in enhancing the catalytic activity of the nanocatalyst. A greener approach for alcohol oxidation was achieved in solventless method with good yield (>78%). Leaching experiments confirmed a strong interaction between magnetic support and complex. The catalyst showed significant conversion even after 5 catalytic runs. © 2015 Elsevier B.V.

Reverse coprecipitation method yielded superparamagnetic Fe3O4at room temperature. The nanocatalyst exhibited good recoverability without significant loss in activity and selectivity within successive runs. © 2016 American Scientific Publishers.

On increasing the precursor concentration from 2 to 10 mM, there is a shift in paramagnetic to weak ferromagnetic behavior of nanoparticles with the increase in saturation magnetization (Ms) from 0.161 to 7.75 emu/g. Frequency dependence of dielectric constant is found to increase with an increase in frequency, and the aforementioned nanoparticles can be used as a dielectric up to 1,50,000 Hz as dissipation factor is lesser than one. Besides, photostability study has indicated that the particles are stable for at least 45 days. Through liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS) analysis, phytochelatins are identified to be involved in the biosynthesis of nanoparticles. © 2020, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.
