Here, synthesis and catalytic activity of a novel nanocatalyst (CuO@mTiO2@CF), consisting of CuO nanoparticles, mesoporous titanium oxide and Cobalt ferrite have been reported for the first time. The catalyst was synthesized using a simple aqueous solution based chemical methodology. Synthesized CuO@mTiO2@CF showed excellent catalytic activity towards various organic reactions such as (i) Epoxidation of styrene, (ii) Click reaction, (iii) Biginelli reaction, (iv) Reduction of 4-Nitrophenol and trifluralin in presence of excess NaBH4. Moreover, this novel nanocatalyst offered easy magnetic separation after the catalysis reaction and excellent reusability. Easy synthesis methodology, versatility, good reusability and easy separation make the nanocatalyst attractive in the field of heterogeneous catalysis.Graphical Abstract
