The catalytic efficiency of nickel nanoparticles was investigated in some electron transfer reactions. The nanoparticles brought about rapid room temperature reduction of a number of nitro aromatics in an aqueous medium with high chemoselectivity and also helped to speed up redox reaction of Fe(CN)6−3 and S2O3−2. In addition, interesting results were obtained for microwave assisted decolourization of azo dye. The reactions were monitored through UV–Vis spectroscopy. The present study has…
