  4. Abstract:
  5. A magnetically recyclable vanadium(V) catalyst was synthesized by covalent anchoring of VO(salen)Cl on silica-coated Fe 3O 4 nanoparticles. This straightforward preparation yields magnetically separable Fe 3O 4@SiO 2@VO(salen) nanoparticles with high vanadium loading. These nanoparticles were efficient catalysts for selective oxidation of sulfides to corresponding sulfoxides with urea hydrogen peroxide in excellent yields. Leaching and recycling experiments revealed that the nanocatalyst can be applied for nearly complete oxidation of sulfides for at least five successive cycles
