Abstract

The γ-Fe₂O₃ nanoparticles well dispersed in porous carbon were fabricated via a Fe-based metal–organic framework-templated pyrolysis. The resultant product exhibits excellent catalytic activity, chemoselectivity and magnetic recyclability for the hydrogenation of diverse nitro compounds under mild conditions.
