P(VI)-Ag and Q-p(VI)-Ag nanocomposite was characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), atomic absorption spectroscopy (AA). Catalytic activity of p(VI)-Ag and Q-p(VI)-Ag catalysts was investigated by emphasizing the effect of different parameters such as temperature, catalyst amount, substituent effect, etc. The catalyst was easily recovered from the reaction medium and it could be re-used for other three runs without significant loss of activity %U https://www.nsmsi.ir/article_246408_3c5b6a82b1ff21ab2e7c813061db7c90.pdf
