Catalytic reduction of 4-nitrophenol over biostabilized gold nanoparticles supported onto thioctic acid functionalized silica-coated magnetite nanoparticles and optimization using response surface methodology

An environmentally benign magnetic gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) catalyst supported onto thioctic acid functionalized silica-coated magnetite nanoparticles, Au–RS–SR–NH–SiO2–Fe3O4,without employing any toxic reductant or capping agent was successfully synthesized. The Phaleria macrocarpa (Scheff.) Boer...
