Cu(II) Schiff base complex supported on Fe3O4 nanoparticles as an efficient nanocatalyst for the selective aerobic oxidation of alcohols was written by Aghajani, Milad;Monadi, Niaz. And the article was included in Applied Organometallic Chemistry in 2018.Category: alcohols-buliding-blocks This article mentions the following:
A new Cu(II) Schiff base complex supported onto the surface of modified Fe3O4 nanoparticles was prepared and used as highly stable, heterogeneous and magnetically recyclable nanocatalyst for the selective aerobic oxidation of various primary and secondary alcs. to the corresponding aldehydes or ketones. The structure, morphol., chem. composition and magnetic property of the nanocatalyst and its precursors were characterized using FT-IR, TGA, AAS, ICP-AES, XRD, SEM, EDS, VSM and N2 adsorption-desorption anal. Characterization results exhibited the uniform spherical morphol. for nanocatalyst and its precursors. A promising eco-friendly method with short reaction time and high conversion and selectivity for oxidation of various primary and secondary alcs. under O2 atmosphere condition was achieved. The synthesized nanocatalyst could be recovered easily by applying an external magnetic field and reused for least eight subsequent reaction cycles with only negligible deterioration in catalytic performance. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, (2,4-Dichlorophenyl)methanol (cas: 1777-82-8Category: alcohols-buliding-blocks).
(2,4-Dichlorophenyl)methanol (cas: 1777-82-8) belongs to alcohols. Alcohols are weak acids. The most acidic simple alcohols (methanol and ethanol) are about as acidic as water, and most other alcohols are somewhat less acidic. Alcohols may be oxidized to give ketones, aldehydes, and carboxylic acids. These functional groups are useful for further reactions. Oxidation of organic compounds generally increases the number of bonds from carbon to oxygen (or another electronegative element, such as a halogen), and it may decrease the number of bonds to hydrogen.Category: alcohols-buliding-blocks
