Abstract

Abstract : A highly effective and stable hollow Fe3 O4 /P(GMA‐EGDMA)‐SO3 H/Au‐PPy catalyst was prepared. Monodisperse hollow Fe3 O4 microspheres were synthesized using a hydrothermal method. As the catalyst support, magnetic hollow Fe3 O4 /P(GMA‐EGDMA) microspheres with core–shell structure were prepared by distillation precipitation polymerization. Then sulfonic acid groups (─SO3 H) were introduced into the surface of the support by surface modification. Au 3+ could be adsorbed by coordination with ─SO3 H and underwent redox reactions with added pyrrole monomers. Finally, an Au–polypyrrole (PPy) layer was formed on the surface of the Fe3 O4 /P(GMA‐EGDMA)‐SO3 H microspheres. The synthesized material was characterized using various techniques. Results indicated that the as‐prepared hollow Fe3 O4 /P(GMA‐EGDMA)‐SO3 H/Au‐PPy catalyst had excellent catalytic activity and exhibited reusability for the reduction reaction of 4‐nitrophenol. In addition, the catalyst was reusable for at least ten successive cycles. Abstract : A highly effective and stable hollow Fe3 O4 /P(GMA‐EGDMA)‐SO3 H/Au‐PPy catalyst was prepared and characterized.
