Instant and quantitative epoxidation of styrene under ambient conditions over a nickel(ii)dibenzotetramethyltetraaza[14]annulene complex immobilized on amino-functionalized SBA-15

Catalytic epoxidation of styrene and methyl oleate over peroxophosphotungstate entrapped in mesoporous SBA-15

Mo(VI) Complexes Immobilized on SBA-15 as an Efficient Catalyst for 1-Octene Epoxidation

SBA-15 materials were functionalized through a post-synthetic methodology with molybdenum-Schiff bases to provide catalytic activity in epoxidation reactions. Thus, glycidoxypropyl functionalities were first attached to the surface of the mesostructured silica, followed by the reaction of the immobilized oxirane groups with 2-amino propyl pyridine. This reaction allowed the obtaining of (hydrox...

Amino Ethyl-Functionalized SBA-15: A Promising Adsorbent for Anionic and Cationic Dyes Removal

Batch Adsorption of Acid Red 37 (AR37) and Basic Orange 2 (BO2) on amino ethyl-functionalized SBA-15 have been studied. SBA-15 was synthesized and functionalized according to the procedure in the literature. Amino ethyl-functionalized SBA-15 showed the BET surface area 520 m2/g and pore diameter 7.02 nm, based on adsorption-desorption of N2. SEM image shows lengthy fib...

Solvent-free synthesis of flavanones over aminopropyl-functionalized SBA-15

Flavanone was synthesized through the Claisen–Schmidt condensation between benzaldehyde and acetophenone and subsequent intramolecular Michael addition over aminopropyl-functionalized SBA-15 materials. The catalysts with well-ordered hexagonally arranged mesopores were synthesized by one-pot co-condensation of tetraethoxysilane and aminopropyltriethoxysilane using amphiphilic block copolymer as...

Formation of cyanide-functionalized SBA-15 and its transformation to carboxylate-functionalized SBA-15

Cyanide-functionalized mesoporous silica SBA-15 (CN/SBA-15) with pore diameters larger than 6 nm has been prepared by a one-pot synthesis. The structure of CN/SBA-15 is affected by the amount of the functional silane 2-cyanoethyltriethoxysilane (CTES) and the conditions of co-condensation in the acidic aqueous solution of the triblock copolymer Pluronic P123: whereas direct mixing of the silica...
