Abstract

Expression of concern for ‘Highly porous copper-supported magnetic nanocatalysts: made of volcanic pumice textured by cellulose and applied for the reduction of nitrobenzene derivatives’ by Reza Taheri-Ledari et al., RSC Adv., 2021, 11, 25284–25295, https://doi.org/10.1039/D1RA03538J.


The Royal Society of Chemistry is publishing this expression of concern in order to alert readers that concerns have been raised regarding the reliability of the SEM-energy mapping data in Fig. 3g. An investigation is underway, and an expression of concern will continue to be associated with the article until a final outcome is reached.
