Two novel heterogeneous hybrid catalysts were successfully synthesized using octa-aminopropyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane hydrochloride salt (OA-POSS) and ionic liquids, followed by immobilization of Cu and Ag nanoparticles. The obtained hybrid catalysts, Cu@POSS-ILs and Ag@POSS-ILs, were characterized using FT-IR, SEM, EDX, TEM, XRD and TGA. Catalytic studies demonstrated that Cu@POSS-ILs was an excellent catalyst for click reaction in aqueous medium. Furthermore, Ag@POSS-ILs was also exhibited to be an active catalyst for 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) reduction. Simple preparation and easy catalysts recovery and recyclability of Cu@POSS-ILs and Ag@POSS-ILs for at least 3 and 6 runs, respectively, without loss of catalytic activity could be considered as important advantageous from catalytic application point of view.
