Abstract
In this study, 1,8-dioxo-octahydroxanthenes were prepared employing a simple, effective and environmentally sound approach utilizing an iron oxide nanocatalyst under solventless conditions. The proposed iron oxide nanomaterial exhibited high product yields, short reaction times and a facile work-up procedure. The synthesized catalyst was also found to be highly stable and reusable under the investigated conditions (up to twelve consecutive cycles) without any significant loss in its catalytic activity.
Highlights
All the natural reactions have at least one catalyst to improve its performance
A number of chemical reactions employ nanocatalytic systems due to the larger surface area of nanoparticles compared to their bulk counterparts, giving rise to numerous catalytically active sites which lead the chemical transformations of the adsorbed reactive molecules

Summary
All the natural reactions have at least one catalyst to improve its performance. Catalysis is considered as a fundamental pillar in chemistry. Due to the needs of selecting environmentally friendly catalysts to reduce cost issues of the chemical industry [1], the selection of green catalysts has become a key challenge in modern society. A number of chemical reactions employ nanocatalytic systems due to the larger surface area of nanoparticles compared to their bulk counterparts, giving rise to numerous catalytically active sites which lead the chemical transformations of the adsorbed reactive molecules. For these reasons nanoparticles are considered as suitable heterogeneous catalysts for a wide range of reaction
