The synthesized superparamagnetic γ -Fe2 O3@SiO2 -SGD nanoparticles were characterized by various techniques such as X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The silica-encapsulated was functionalized with biomolecule Sulfonamide. The γ-Fe2O3 @SiO2 -SGD was found to be a highly active and efficient catalyst at room temperature for oxidation of alcohols. Finally, we reported characterization and application of nanocatalyst in the reaction with excellent conversion (75%-85%), in short time, and under mild conditions.
