文摘

Magnetically separable nano core–shell Fe₃O₄@Cu(OH)_x with 22 % Cu content was prepared by the addition of sodium hydroxide to a mixture of CuCl₂·2H₂O and nano Fe₃O₄ in water. Characterization of the impregnated copper hydroxide was carried out by X-ray fluorescence (XRF), X-ray diffraction (XRD) atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), value stream mapping (VSM) and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) analysis. The core–shell nanocatalyst exhibited the excellent catalytic activity toward reduction of various nitro compounds to the corresponding amines with NaBH₄. All reactions were carried out in H₂O (55–60 °C) within 3–15 min to afford amines in high to excellent yields. Reusability of core–shell Cu(OH)_x catalyst was examined 9 times without significant loss of its catalytic activity.
