The hexagonal zinc oxide coated nickel (Ni/ZnO) nanostructure photocatalyst has successfully been prepared by the reduction of nickel chloride hexahydrate using hydrazine hydrate through the solvothermal process at 140 °C followed by surface modification of the product by the reflux method at 110 °C for 1 h. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern showed that the 'as prepared' sample consists of fa...

In this study, multi component Hantzsch reaction was carried out between various  Aromatic Aldehyde with Dimedone,Ethyl acetateand ammonium acetate to produce polyhydroquinolinederivatives under solvent-free conditions at 110oC by a (Zinc oxide  nanocatalyst) as effective Lewis acid. The remarkable advantages offered by this method compared with other methods are a green catalyst, simple work-u...

The present study reports for the first time the use of a thiol-functionalized graphene oxide nanocatalyst with impressive activity (>10(5)-fold) in dephosphorylation reactions. The innovative and recyclable nanocatalyst has potential in designing artificial enzymes with targeted multifunctionalities and in detoxification of organophosphorus agents.

This communication reports a nanocatalyst-based electrochemical assay for proteins. Ultrasensitive detection has been achieved by signal amplification combined with noise reduction: the signal is amplified both by the catalytic reduction of p-nitrophenol to p-aminophenol by gold-nanocatalyst labels and by the chemical reduction of p-quinone imine to p-aminophenol by NaBH4; the noise is reduced ...

new type of heterogeneous nanocatalyst for deoximation based on tungsten oxide supported on mesoporousmolecular sieve mcm-41 was developed. this new system representes inexpensive and highly activeheterogeneous nanocatalyst for deoximation under green and mild reaction conditions.

Bimetallic nanoparticles have attracted significant attention as their electrochemical and catalytic properties being superior to those of the individual component nanoparticles. In this study, gold-silver hybrid nanoparticles (AuAgNPs) with an Aucore-Agshell nanostructure were successfully synthesized on zinc oxide (ZnO) whiskers. The as-prepared nanocatalyst, denoted AuAgNPsZnO whisker, exhib...
