Abstract
Ru@MNP-MWCNT catalysts were obtained via functionalization of nanostructured carbon-based carriers (ie, MWCNT) with base molecules (ie, 2-aminophenol and ethylenediamine) followed by the complexation with RuCl3. These structures demonstrated a highly efficient behavior for the selective wet oxidation of levulinic acid and glucose to succinic acid. However, to ensure an easy recovery and high recyclability the MWCNTs nanotubes were modified by incorporation of super-paramagnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles into porous structure. Besides the catalytic performances the resulted composites showed a good mechanical resistance.
