	Microwave-assisted efficient synthesis of nanosized manganese oxide (Mn2O3) is reported using glycerol and manganese acetate. Glycerol in this reported methodology acts as an efficient solvent for this nanomaterial synthesis under microwave radiation. This reported method enables the synthesis of nanosized Mn2O3 without further use of additives, stabilizers, and bases other than glycerol and manganese precursor. Glycerol is a renewable biomaterial derived nonvolatile and nontoxic, safe solvent. It has a high boiling point and dielectric constant, which makes it an ideal solvent for microwave synthesis. The synthesized nanosized Mn2O3 was analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and Raman spectroscopy. We examined the catalytic properties of as-synthesized Mn2O3 for cinnamyl alcohol oxidation to cinnamaldehyde. In this oxidation activity experiment, nanosized Mn2O3 exhibits good conversion and selectivity towards the desired product. We also made an attempt to understand the probable mechanism of nanomaterial formation and found some conclusive evidence to support it. This research methodology is facile, energy efficient, and involves minimum chemicals for synthesis. It makes this reported methodology not only economically attractive but also environmentally friendly, which aligns well with green chemistry principles.&lt;/p&gt;

	In this manuscript, we report an unique, one pot, one step synthesis of Fe3O4 nanoparticles. The protocol for synthesis of nanosized Fe3O4 was developed using only Benzyl Amine and Fe(II)acetate precursor via microwave route. Microwave route enables the synthesis of Fe3O4 nanoparticles in short duration and eliminates the need of several chemicals. These salient features make the entire synthetic process environment benign as per green chemistry principles. The morphology and other properties of synthesized nanoparticles were studied by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis (XPS), Raman spectroscopy, Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM), and High-Resolution-Transmission Electron Microscopy (HR-TEM). As-synthesized Fe3O4 nanoparticles exhibit efficient catalytic transfer hydrogenation of furfural using isopropanol as the solvent and hydrogen source, and provide furfuryl alcohol in good yield. This nanosized Fe3O4 was easily removable using magnet and exhibits good reusability. It is observed that acidic-basic sites of nanosized Fe3O4 play a vital role in catalytic transfer hydrogenation reaction.&lt;/p&gt;
