ZnFeO@SiO@L-lysine@SOH: preparation, characterization, and its catalytic applications in the oxidation of sulfides and synthesis of Bis(pyrazolyl)methanes.

Herein, we report the synthesis of ZnFeO@SiO@L-lysine@SOH as a green, novel magnetic nanocatalyst, containing the sulfuric acid catalytic sites on the surface of zinc ferrite as the catalytic support. The physical and chemical properties of raw and modified samples (ZnFeO@SiO@L-lysine@SOH) were characterized by TGA, EDX, PXRD, Map, and FTIR analyses. The prepared nanocatalyst has excellent catalytic activity in synthesizing the oxidation of sulfides to the sulfoxides and Synthesis of pyrazolyl (Bis(pyrazolyl)methane) derivatives under green conditions.
