Abstract
An intermetallic magnetic compound of iron oxide and palladium with a nanometer particle size is disclosed, together with a method of making magnetic nanoparticles that include an intermetallic bond between palladium and iron-oxide. Additionally, a method is disclosed of catalyzing an organic reaction by contacting the organic reagents with an intermetallic magnetic compound of iron oxide and palladium that has nanometer particle size in an amount sufficient to catalyze the organic reaction.
