Using heterogeneous transition metal oxides as catalysts, the oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde with molecular oxygen is favorable because of mild reaction conditions, high production efficiency, and chlorine-free products. Herein, Mn–Ni bimetallic catalysts were fabricated by a specific co-precipitation method, and the influence of catalyst composition and calcination temperature on the oxidative performance of benzyl alcohol was investigated. Under the optimized reaction conditions, the conversion of benzyl alcohol reached 65.6%, with a selectivity of 100% to the target benzaldehyde. Recycling tests showed that the prepared Mn–Ni bimetallic catalyst maintained constant activity, with no significant changes in the composition, morphology, phase, and chemical state of the elements upon catalyst recovery, demonstrating reliable stability.

Exact quantitative insight into the composite formation was obtained from structural and morphological characterizations. The crystallite size of the active Pd phase, obtained from Williamson-Hall plots, showed a formation trend that increased from 6.75 nm in SnO<sub>2</sub>/Pd/PdO to 13.38 nm for the fully integrated Ni/NiO/SnO<sub>2</sub>/Pd/PdO composite, using coupled X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and further corroborated through Williamson-Hall calculations. This integration in structure gave rise to a positive lattice strain (2.84 × 10<sup>− 3</sup>) and the lattice constant was also increased (a = 3.902 Å). FESEM and EDX morphological studies indicated largely isolated nanoparticle networks resulting from the incorporation of SnO<sub>2</sub> as a dispersing agent, leading to a reduction in particle size from ~ 51 nm (in Ni/NiO/Pd/PdO) to an optimum range of 30–46 nm, thus preventing the aggregation of Pd/PdO.

This catalytic activity is far superior to recently reported benchmark catalysts such as PdNiAg nanoparticles (43.92 mA/cm<sup>2</sup>) and bare Pd/GC (5 mA/cm<sup>2</sup>), mainly owing to increased CO tolerance and a highly efficient diffusion-controlled oxidation mechanism.
