Abstract

In this study, new RuO2@ZrO2 core–shell nanoparticles have been produced using simple procedure and characterized by the spectroscopic methods (XRD and HR-TEM techniques). Catalytic activity of the synthesized nano powders has been investigated in the liquid-phase selective oxidation of benzyl alcohols. Also, the effect of some parameters such as optimum weight ratio for Ru doping, catalyst, oxidant type and various solvents was studied in room temperature, reflux, ultrasound, microwave conditions and UV–vis irradiation. The catalyst exhibits excellent activity and high conversion under mild conditions. Furthermore, this reagent was recycled and reused three times in the model reaction.
