A melamine supported on TiO2 coated Fe3O4@C nanocomposite as a bifunctional, effective and reusable catalyst for the Knoevenagel condensation reaction

A novel magnetic core–shell structured nanocomposite, Fe 3 O 4 @C@TiO 2 /melamine, is developed as a bifunctional catalyst for the Knoevenagel condensation reaction. This innovative material is described as an effective, powerful and recyclable catalyst.
