Magnetically recoverable nanoflake-shaped iron oxide/Pt heterogeneous catalysts and their excellent catalytic performance in the hydrogenation reaction.In this study, a kind of unique Fe2O3/Pt hybrid consisting of uniform platinum nanoparticles deposited on a nanoflake-shaped Fe2O3 support was prepared by using a solvothermal reaction followed by a heat-induced reduction process.  Furthermore, the prepared Fe2O3/Pt heterogeneous catalyst could be easily separated from the product mixture by using a magnet and could be recycled for 10 cycles without catalytic activity loss.
