physical adsorption techniques. Among the as-prepared catalysts, Cat-3 exhibited excellent catalytic activity towards the direct amidation of benzaldehydes as well as benzylamines bearing various substituents into the corresponding amides at 100 °C using TBHP as an oxidant. The mechanistic investigation of the amidation reaction revealed that the reaction follows a radical pathway. Furthermore, the catalyst is easily separable and recyclable without considerable loss in catalytic activity.
