Abstract :A new magnetically separable catalyst consisting of binuclear Mn(II) complex [Mn2(HL)2(H2O)4], HL = 2-[(2-hydroxy-benzylidene)-amino]-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-propionic acid, supported on (3-chloropropyl)-trimethoxysilane (CPTMS) functionalized silica-coated magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) was prepared. The synthesized catalyst was characterized by several physico-chemical and spectroscopic methods. This immobilized complex was found to be an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the oxidation of different sulfides and hydrocarbons using hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as an oxidant. The catalyst is readily recovered by simple magnetic decantation and can be recycled several times with no considerable loss of catalytic activity.
