Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Core@shell nanoparticles with a superparamagnetic iron oxide core, a middle nonporous silica shell, and an outer organo functionalized mesoporous silica shell were synthesized and evaluated for immobilizing Ag nanoparticles. The iron oxide nanoparticles cores were synthesized via improved chemical coprecipitation method and they were silica-coated by surface silylation via a Stober sol-gel process. Afterward, magnetic core-shell structured mesoporous silica microspheres, FeO@nSiO@mSiO, were synthesized by silylation of FeO@nSiO surface using tetraethyl orthosilicate through surfactant directed self-assembly on the surface, followed by etching of the surfactant molecules. Further modification of the surface by grafting of 3-chloropropyl triethoxysilane, nucleophilic substitution reaction of the chloride with imidazole and then quaternization with 2-bromo ethylamine hydrobromide produced the 2-amino ethyl-3-propyl imidazolium bromide functionalized magnetic core-shell structured mesoporous silica microspheres, FeO@nSiO@mSiO/Pr-Im-NH. Finally, the target nanocomposite, FeO@nSiO@mSiO/Pr-Im-NH·Ag was formed by embedding the silver nanoparticles into the mesoporous nanocomposite. The organic-inorganic nanocomposite was characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), elemental analysis (CHN), vibrating sample magnetometer (VAM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential thermal analysis (DTA), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET). The catalytic activity test with the nitroarene reduction in an aqueous medium by using NaBH reveals that this Ag-supported nanocomposite is highly active for a wide range of substrates, suggesting highly promising application potentials of the magnetic core-shell-structured mesoporous organosilica. This method has the advantages of high yields, a cleaner reaction, simple methodology, short reaction times, easy workup, and greener conditions. In addition to the facility of this methodology, it also enhances product purity and promises economic as well as environmental benefits.
