Molecular nanomagnets, also known as Single Molecule Magnets (SMMs) are a class of molecules that at low temperature exhibit magnetic hysteresis of pure molecular origin and not related to a cooperative effect. In the past fifteen years they have attracted great interest for their potentiality to act as magnetic memory units and for the many quantum effects in the dynamics of their magnetization. Organization of SMM on surfaces is the first step in order to address the magnetic state of a single molecule or to connect the molecule to a conducting substrate. The complex nature of SMMs and the peculiar origin of their magnetic bistability have been representing for half a decade an obstacle to... 

In the past few decades, many attempts have been made to combine the benefits of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts. The immobilization of homogeneous catalysts onto the surface of heterogeneous supports is the result of such efforts. In this research, immobilized heterogeneous catalysts were designed and synthesized based on double network hydrogels, which produce from interpenetrating of two biocompatible and biodegradable polymer networks. In order to provide magnetic responsibility and easy separation of catalyst from the reaction mixture, the magnetic nanoparticles were dispersed onto the surface of double network hydrogel. Finally, various metal nanoparticles such as palladium and... 

Today, catalysts have shown the growing applications in chemical industries especially for drug synthesis. Using immobilized heterogeneous catalysts is a sensible way to benefit from advantages of both heterogeneous and homogeneous catalysts. In this regards, homogeneous catalysts are immobilized on to a solid support through various methods. However, low loading amount of homogenous part and subsequently insufficient catalytic activity are main limitations of immobilized heterogeneous catalysts. For this reason, polymeric supports have been introduced to immobilize metal ions or nanoparticles. These polymeric supports not only possess advantages such as anti-corrosive properties, simple... 

Formation of C-C and C-hetero atom bonds in coupling reactions is among the most important organic chemistry reactions, which is useful for achieving the complex molecules from simple ones. The goal of this thesis, was using the organometallic and also metal free methods in coupling reactions and getting the advantage of them in the synthesis of novel hit compounds. In this way, some novel reactions were designed and some novel catalysts were synthesised and identified. Finally, computational quantum chemistry and computational drug design were used as powerful tools for supporting the reaction mechanism, electronic and structural studies and pharmacological evaluation. C-X bond activation... 

A new magnetic catalytic nanocomposite of Hal-MT-Cys-Ag/MNCD was fabricated and utilized for catalyzing reductive de-colorization of methyl orange and rhodamin B in aqueous media at room temperature. To prepare this material, Cl-functionalized halloysite nanoclay was successively reacted with melamine and 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine to furnish multi-nitrogen containing ligand on halloysite surface. Then, magnetic carbon dots were crafted through a facile method and decorated with Ag nanoparticles and cysteine to furnish Cys-Ag/MNCD species. The final nanocomposite was obtained via incorporation of this latter species onto functionalized halloysite. This was characterized through the XRD,... 

In the first section, due to the important role of nanocatalysts in different fields of chemistry, magnetic metal ferrite nanoparticles were synthesized. Ferrite nanoparticles were synthesized using co-precipitation method and were characterized. Then, these nanoparticles were applied as catalyst system for one-pot β-ketophosphonates and thiophosphate synthesis.This is a green and efficient route for S-P and C-P bond construction using copper ferrite nanoparticles as catalyst. The application of a highly active recyclable heterogeneous nanocopper ferrite catalyst for the oxyphosphorylation reaction of various alkenes was conducted under ligand-free conditions, in acetonitrile as solvent at...
