Abstract
Metal/Oxide nanoparticles due to their special properties such as stability, easy synthesis and reusability are interesting as catalyst for organic oxidation reaction. Ni/Bi2WO6 nanoparticles were synthesized by simple hydrothermal method. The obtained-products were characterized by EDS, X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and other techniques. The catalytic activity of Ni/Bi2WO6 nanoparticles on oxidation of different alcohols with hydrogen peroxide as green oxidant was investigated. Benzyl alcohol has been used as model alcohol to examine for oxidative activity and selectivity at reflux conditions. Yield of reaction were determined by GC-Mass instrument.
