•Greener approach in solventless method with good yield for alcohol oxidation was achieved.•A strong interaction between magnetic support and complex was achieved.•Improved catalytic activity due to ferromagnetic interaction of the complexes.
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.
Graphical abstractAn environmental benign greener route for oxidation of alcohol to carbonyl was achieved by an active, retrievable immobilized Co(II)/Ni(II) magnetic nanocatalyst.Figure optionsDownload full-size imageDownload high-quality image (94 K)Download as PowerPoint slide
