Publishing in an international journal with a 5-impact factor
Dr. Sewara J. Mohammed, a lecturer and researcher at Cihan University Sulaimaniya, recently authored a groundbreaking research article entitled “Innovative Development of Hybrid Nanocatalyst (ATH-ZnONPs) Through Green Methods for Achieving Visible Light-Induced Photocatalytic Aerobic Oxidation of Benzyl Alcohols into Corresponding Aldehydes and Ketones.” This significant contribution has been prominently featured by the reputable international publisher Elsevier, specifically in the esteemed Surfaces and Interfaces journal. Surfaces and Interfaces boasts an impressive impact factor of 6.2 and holds a distinguished position in the first quartile (Q1), recognized by both Clarivate and Web of Science.
In the field of organic chemistry, the utilization of heterogeneous photo-redox catalysis under visible light irradiation represents a cutting-edge approach, paving the way for more efficient and environmentally sustainable synthetic methods. This research marks a pivotal moment in this field, as it introduces a novel method to activate zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs), characterized by their wide band gap energy (3.37 eV), under visible light conditions. This achievement is made possible through the incorporation of anthocyanin dye (ATH) extracted from pomegranate flower petals. The synthesized composite, denoted as ATH@ZnONPs, demonstrates exceptional efficacy in the oxidation of aromatic alcohols to produce corresponding aldehydes and ketones with remarkable yield percentages.
