A novel SBA-15-functionalized TEMPO confined ionic liquid [BMIm]Br was found to be a highly efficient and recyclable catalyst system for the transition-metal-free aerobic oxidation of a wide range of structurally diverse alcohols. Thanks to the strong physical confinement of the ionic liquid inside the mesochannels of SBA-15-supported TEMPO, the resulting solid catalyst showed improved selectiv...

NiII and MnIII Schiff base complexes (Salophen-Ni Salophen-MnCl) bearing a pending carboxylic group were prepared characterized. Both grafted onto mesoporous amino-functionalized SBA-15 silica, by formation of an amide function between the propylamine groups support acid functions salophen ligand (corresponding respective to 1.30 wt.% Ni 1.06 Mn). The co-catalytic behaviour free was then evalua...

Here we describe a simple route to creating conformal sulphated zirconia monolayers throughout an SBA-15 architecture that confers efficient acid-catalysed one-pot conversion of glucose to ethyl levulinate.

the surface of sba-15 was modified by diphenylphosphine; then, it was treated with butane sultone and sulfuric acid to obtain brønsted acid ho3s-phosphonium based ionic liquid functionalized sba-15 with hso4- as a counteranion. it efficiently catalyzed synthesis of pyrano[3,2-c]chromenone derivatives through the reaction of 4-hydroxycoumarin and chalcones at 60 °c in water/ethanol. good yields,...

Sulfonic acid functionalized SBA-15 (SBA-Pr-SO3H) as a new nanoporous acid catalyst was used in the one-pot synthesis of polyhydroquinolines derivatives via the Hantzsch four component condensation reaction of aldehydes, b-ketoesters, dimedone and ammonium acetate under solvent free conditions with short reaction time in excellent yields. SBA-P...

A new method for the preparation of well-defined functionalized mesoporous SBA-15 has been developed by a one-step co-condensation method using trimethallylsilanes as organosilane sources. This new method enables the incorporation of various bulky organic functional groups with long alkyl chain tethers into the mesoporous silica network.
