Description
Summary:For the first time, herein is reported the use of a magnetic core-shell support for a C-scorpionate metallic complex. The prepared hybrid material, that consists on the C-scorpionate iron(II) complex [FeCl<sub>2</sub>{κ<sup>3</sup>-HC(pz)<sub>3</sub>}] (pz, pyrazolyl) immobilized at magnetic core-shell particles (Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub>/TiO<sub>2</sub>), was tested as catalyst for the oxidation of secondary alcohols using the model substrate 1-phenylethanol. Moreover, the application of alternative energy sources (e.g., ultrasounds, microwaves, mechanical or thermal) for the peroxidative alcohol oxidation using the magnetic heterogenized iron(II) scorpionate led to different/unusual outcomes that are presented and discussed.
