OXID ATION OF ALCOHOLS IN THE PRESENCE OF MAGNETIC ZINC FERRITE NANOPARTICLES

Nanomagnetic ZnFe2O4 is an active, stable, and reusable catalyst for selective oxidations of alcohols applying oxone (potassium hydrogen monopersulfate) as oxidant in the presence of acetonitrile as solvent at 40 ºC. Primary and secondary alcohols gave the corresponding products ingood yields In addition, the catalysts could be reused up to 6 runs without significant loss of activities. Catalyst was characterized by IR, XRD, SEM and ICP.
