Selective oxidation of active and inactive alcohol substrates and reduction of nitroarenes is a highly versatile conversion that remains a challenge in controlling functionality and adjustments in metal−organic frameworks (MOFs). On the other hand, it offers an attractive opportunity to expand their applications in designing the next generation of catalysts with improved performance. Herein, a novel mixed MOF consisting of supported 2-hydroxybenzamide (mixed MOF-salinidol) has been fabricated by post-synthetic modifications of mixed MOF. Subsequently, the prepared nanocomposites were modified to impart catalytic sites using palladium chloride ions mixed with MOF-salinidol/Pd (II). After successfully designing and structurally characterizing nanocomposites, we evaluated their activity in oxidizing primary and secondary alcohols using aerobic conditions with molecular oxygen and an air atmosphere. In addition, the stability of (mixed MOF-salinidol/Pd (II)) catalysts under catalytic conditions was also demonstrated by comparing the Fourier-transform infrared spectrum, scanning electron microscopy image, and ICP-OES method before and after catalysis. Based on the results, the active surface area of the synthesized nanocatalyst is large, which highlights its unique synergistic effect between post-synthetic modified MOF and Pd, and furthermore, the availability of catalytic sites from Pd, as demonstrated by outstanding catalytic activity
