Abstract
Readily available, air-stable, recyclable copper(II) ferrite nanopartices serve as a catalyst in a sustainable synthesis of benzoxazoles from substituted N-(2-halophenyl)benzamides. The nanocatalyst can be completely recovered with an external magnet and can be used seven times without significant loss of catalytic activity.
