In this study, CuO and NiO NPs have been synthesized by facile thermal decomposition of Schiff base complexes and their physical properties have been examined. The synthesized CuO and NiO NPs are crystallized in polycrystalline monoclinic and cubic structures with average particle size 17 ± 0.4 and 62 ± 1 nm, respectively. The electrical conductivity measurements confirm that the conduction ... Read more

Hydrothermal preparation and characterization of ZnFe2O4 magnetic nanoparticles as  catalyst for the synthesis of multi‐substituted imidazoles
Nanoparticles are key focus of research for a wide range of novel applications. As such, ZnFe2O4 magnetic nanoparticles were synthesized hydrothermally and characterized via scanning and transmission electron microscopies, powder X‐ray diffraction, energy‐dispersive X‐ray and infrared spectroscopies, thermogravimetric analysis and magnetic measurements. They were used as a robust catalyst for the synthesis of a series of biologically active multi‐substituted imidazoles ... Read more
