Magnetic nano-catalysts have been prepared using simple modification of iron ferrites. The nm size range of these particles facilitates the catalysis process, as an increased surface area is available for the reaction; the easy separation of the catalysts by an external magnet and their recovery and reuse are additional beneficial attributes. Glutathione bearing nano-ferrites have been used as organocatalysts for the Paal-Knorr reaction and homocoupling of boronic acids. Nanoferrites, post-synthetically modified by ligands, were used to immobilize nanometals (Cu, Pd, Ru, etc.) which enabled the development of efficient, sustainable and green procedures for azide-alkynes-cycloaddition (AAC) reactions, C-S coupling, O-allylation of phenol, Heck-type reactions and hydration of nitriles.
Nano-organocatalyst: magnetically retrievable ferrite-anchored glutathione for microwave-assisted Paal-Knorr reaction, aza-Michael addition, and pyrazole synthesis

Postsynthetic surface modification of magnetic nanoparticles by glutathione imparts desirable chemical functionality and enables the generation of catalytic sites on the surfaces of ensuing organocatalysts. In this article, we discuss the developments, unique activity, and high selectivity of nano-organocatalysts for microwave-assisted Paal-Knorr reaction, aza-Michael addition, and pyrazole synthesis. Their insoluble character coupled with paramagnetic nature enables easy separation of these nano-catalysts from the reaction mixture using external magnet, which eliminates the requirement of catalyst filtration.
Magnetic nanoparticle-supported glutathione: A conceptually sustainable organocatalyst

supporting information; experimental part, p. 1837 - 1839 (2009/10/23)
A conceptually novel nanoparticle-supported and magnetically recoverable organocatalyst has been developed, which is readily prepared from inexpensive starting materials in a truly sustainable manner; which catalyzes the Paal-Knorr reaction with high yield in pure aqueous medium that avoids the use of toxic organic solvents, even in the workup step.
