•Fe and Fe/Cu nanowires were used as co-catalyst in combination with NHPI.•NHPI and nanowires are good catalytic systems for the aerobic oxidation of organic compounds.•Quick rotational motion of the co-catalysts improves the dynamics of oxidation reaction.•Co-catalysts working in rotational motion could be recycled without changes their activity.
Iron nanowires (FeNWs) and copper-sheathed iron nanowires (Fe/CuNWs) were prepared and used as co-catalyst in aerobic oxidation of acroleine catalyzed by N-hydroxyphtalimide (NHPI). Acroleine was smoothly transformed into acrylic acid with up to 97 % yields at room temperature under atmospheric pressure of dioxygen. The influence of the rotational motion of co-catalysts on the dynamics of the catalytic reaction and their activity when recycling the process was studied.
Graphical abstractThe influence of the rotational motion of co-catalysts such as iron nanowires (FeNWs) and copper-sheathed iron nanowires (Fe/CuNWs) on the dynamics and recycling process of the aerobic oxidation of acroleine catalyzed by N-hydroxyphtalimide was studied.Figure optionsDownload full-size imageDownload high-quality image (79 K)Download as PowerPoint slide
