New heterogeneous catalysts for alkene hydrogenation reactions were prepared by the immobilization of trimethoxysilane functionalized triphenylphosphine eta(6)-p-cymene ruthenium complex on mesoporous organosilica (PMO-Ru). Characterization techniques confirmed the structural integrity of the organosilica material and proved the successful anchoring of ruthenium complex. Catalytic activity and stability of PMO-Ru sample investigated in the hydrogenation of various olefins showed higher activity than a neat and MCM-41 supported ruthenium catalyst. High catalytic activity and stability of organosilica supported ruthenium catalyst are attributed to the hydrophobic environments and to the unique structural features imparted from the presence of organic groups in the framewall positions.

A heterogenized organocatalyst was synthesized by the covalent anchoring; of the complex chloro (S,S)(-)[N-3-tert-butyl-5-chloromethyl salicylidene]-N'-[3',5'-di-tert-butyl salicylidene] 1,1'-binapthyl-2,2'-diamine manganese(III) over modified mesoporous surface of SBA-15 through the reactive 3-aminopropyl trimethoxysilane (3-APTMS) group. The surface properties of the functionalized catalyst were analyzed by a series of characterization techniques such as elemental analysis, XRD, N-2 sorption measurement isotherm, FT-IR, TGA-DTA, XPS, and solid state C-13 NMR. The XRD and N-2 sorption measurement, UV reflectance and CP MAS NMR spectroscopy (C-13 and Si-29) of the catalyst confirmed the structural integrity of the mesoporous hosts and the spectroscopic characterization technique proved the successful anchoring of the metal complex over the modified mesoporous support. The screening of the catalyst Mn(III)-L-SBA-15 and neat Mn(III)-L complexes was done in the oxidation reaction of thioanisole (methyl phenyl sulfide) by using TBHP as an oxidant. Mn(III)-L-SBA-15 catalyst shows higher activities and turnover number (TON) and exhibit enhanced enantiomeric excess comparable to homogeneous catalyst [Mn(III)-L]. [Mn(III)-L-SBA-15] catalyst was found more active than homogeneous catalyst [Mn(III)-L]; Moreover bulkier alkene like 1,2-dihydronapthalene was also efficiently epoxidised with the synthesized supported catalyst.

A reusable, mesoporous, heterogeneous vanadium complex, (VO)-O-IV-Sal-Ind-SBA-15 has been synthesized first time from (1R,2S)-(+)-Cis-1-amino-2-indanol for enantioselective sulfoxidation reaction. The physico-chemical properties of the functionalized catalyst were analyzed by a series of characterization techniques like XRD, N-2 sorption measurement isotherm, TEM, FT-IR, XPS, EPR, DRS UV-Visible, ICP-OES and solid & liquid state C-13, Si-29 and V-51 NMR spectroscopy. Powder X-ray diffraction patterns, TEM and N-2 physisorption analysis confirmed the retention of mesoporous structure after various modifications. Solid-state NMR (C-13 CP-MAS NMR, Si-29 MAS NMR) and FT-IR analysis certified the integrity of organo-catalyst residing inside the pore channels of the mesoporous support. Further, XPS, EPR, V-51 NMR and DRS UV-Visible analyses help to find out the oxidation state and coordination environment of vanadium in (VO)-O-IV-Sal-Ind-SBA-15. Catalytic evaluation in asymmetric sulfoxidation reaction of sulfides indicated that VOIV-Sal-Ind-SBA-15 exhibited higher catalytic activity, stability, reusability and comparable enantioselectivity than SBA-15, PrNH2-SBA-15, neat (VO)-O-IV-Sal-Indanol complex and without catalyst. The effect of different catalysts, temperature, solvents and substrates on sulfoxidation reaction were examined in order to optimize the conversion and enantioselectivity of thioanisoles to sulfoxides.

The efficient and reusable oxidation catalyst 3-[N,N'-bis-3-(salicylidenamino)ethyltriamine] Mo(VI)O-2@SBA-15 has been synthesized by the anchoring of the 3-[N,N-bis-3-(salicylidenamino)ethyltriamine] ligand (L or Salpr) on the inner surfaces of organofunctionalized SBA-15 and subsequent complexation with Mo(VI) O-2(acac)(2). The physico-chemical properties of the functionalized catalysts were analyzed by elemental analysis, ICP-OES, XRD, N-2-sorption measurements, TG & DTA, solid state C-13, Si-29 NMR spectroscopy, FT-IR, Raman spectroscopy, XPS, DRS UV-Vis spectroscopy, SEM and TEM. XRD and N-2 sorption analyses helped to find out the morphological and textural properties of the synthesized catalysts and confirm that an ordered mesoporous channel structure was retained even after the multistep synthetic procedures. The (100), (110) and (200) reflections in SBA-15 provide hints of a good structural stability, the existence of long range ordering and a high pore wall thickness. TG and DTA results reveal that the thermal stability of (L)Mo(VI)O-2@SBA-15 was maintained up to 300 degrees C. The organic moieties anchored over the surface of the SBA-15 support were determined by solid state C-13 NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy. Further, solid state Si-29 NMR spectroscopy provides the information about the degree of functionalization of the surface silanol groups with the organic moiety. The electronic environment and the oxidation state of the molybdenum site in (L)Mo(VI)O-2@SBA-15 were monitored by Raman spectroscopy, XPS and DRS UV-Vis techniques. Moreover, the morphology and topographic information of the synthesized catalysts were confirmed by SEM and TEM imaging. The synthesized catalysts were evaluated in epoxidation and sulfoxidation reactions, and the results show that (L)Mo(VI)O-2@SBA-15 exhibits high conversion and selectivity towards epoxidation and sulfoxidation reactions in combination with high stability. The anchored solid catalysts can be recycled effectively and reused several times without major loss in activity. In addition, Sheldon's hot filtration test was also carried out.

Highly reactive and hydrophobic triphenyl phosphine based rhodium(I) and ruthenium(II) organometallic complexes over benzene containing periodic mesoporous organosilica (PMOB) have been synthesized. This has been achieved by the immobilization of neat metal complexes like RhCl(PPh3)(3) [Wilkinson catalyst], RuHCl(CO)(PPh3)(3) and RuCl2(PPh3)(3) over aminofunctionalized PMOB to get RhCl(PPh3)(2)-PrNH2PMOB, RuHCl(CO)(PPh3)(2)-PrNH2PMOB and RuCl2(PPh3)(3)-PrNH2PMOB, respectively. The physico-chemical properties of the functionalized catalysts were analyzed by elemental analysis, ICP-OES, XRD, N-2 sorption analyses, FT-IR, solid state C-13 and Si-29 NMR spectra, XPS, SEM, TEM and contact angle measurements. The XRD and N-2 sorption analyses showed excellent textural properties with ordered mesoporous channel structure of all synthesized catalysts. The organic moieties anchored in PMOB were confirmed by C-13 CPMAS NMR and Fr-IR spectroscopy with Si-29 CPMAS NMR spectroscopy providing the information about the degree of functionalization of surface silanol groups with organic moiety. The Rh(I) and Ru(II) complexes supported on MCM-41/SBA-15/PMOE (ethane-PMO) were synthesized, and their catalytic activities in hydrogenation and sulfoxidation reactions were compared with Rh(I) and Ru(II) complexes supported on PMOB. The results show that PMOB based catalysts exhibit higher activities and selectivities than MCM-41/SBA-15/PMOB supported catalysts, neat homogeneous complexes and without catalyst. The better catalytic performance of PMOB based catalyst is attributed to the hydrophobic nature and high surface area of the PMOB support. The recycling studies of anchored catalysts show no major deactivation of the catalyst. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Recyclable SBA-15 supported aminopropyl vanadium(III) acetylacetonate heterogeneous catalyst has been synthesized by covalent anchoring of vanadium(III) acetylacetonate over aminofunctionalized SBA-15 via. post grafting method, V(III)(acac)3NH2@SBA-15. The synthesized catalyst was characterized by elemental analysis, ICP-OES, XRD, N2 sorption analysis, FT-IR, 29Si NMR spectroscopy, XPS, SEM and TEM. The percentage of nitrogen and vanadium in V(III)(acac)3NH2@SBA-15 was determined by elemental analysis and ICP-OES, respectively. XRD and N2 sorption analyses provide the information about the structural integrity (Mesoporous structure) and textural properties of all synthesized catalysts. The presence and degree of organofunctionalization on SBA-15 were monitored by FT-IR and 29Si NMR spectroscopy, respectively. Moreover, the oxidation state and the chemical environment of vanadium metal in V(III)(acac)3NH2@SBA-15 were revealed by XPS spectroscopy. Eventually, the morphology and topographic information of the synthesized catalysts were confirmed by SEM and TEM imaging. The synthesized catalyst was evaluated in oxidation of various sulfides and the results show that V(III)(acac)3NH2@SBA-15 catalyst exhibits higher conversion and selectivity towards the sulfoxidation reaction compared to the neat V(III)(acac)3 complex and blank reaction. The synthesized catalyst was recycled four times.

An efficient, simple, phosphine and co-catalyst free C-C coupling reaction heterogeneous catalyst via a post grafting method is developed and reported. A covalently anchored phosphine free Pd(II) based 2,2'-dihydroxybenzophenone (DHBP) complex over organofunctionalized SBA-15 has been synthesized by the reaction between aminofunctionalized SBA-15 (NH(2)SBA-15) and a 2,2'-dihydroxybenzophenone (DHBP) ligand, and further complexation with Pd(II)Cl-2 to get Pd(II)-DHBP@ SBA-15.

The synthesized catalysts were screened in arylation (Heck reactions) and hydrogenation reactions of alkenes, and the results show that Pd(II)-DHBP@ SBA-15 exhibits high conversion and selectivity towards arylation and hydrogenation reactions of alkenes with high stability. The anchored solid catalysts can be recycled effectively and reused several times without major loss in activity.

Synthesis of Au@Ni bimetallic core shell nanostructures using commercially available soya bean oil as the solvent through a sequential reduction strategy is reported. The energy efficiency and economic viability comes from the much milder temperatures and replacement of expensive and environmentally hazardous solvents like long chain organic amines and acids previously reported for synthesis. Thus, core shell nanoparticles having size regime of 10-15 nm with an excellent control over the nickel shell thickness (2 nm) over the gold core (8-10 nm) and Au@Ni nanochains is achieved. The synthesized materials are demonstrated to synergistically catalyze hydrogenation of nitro and C-C multiple bonds with much better efficiency as compared to individual nanoparticle counterparts.

An effective and impressive heterogeneous catalyst, Pd(II)-3-allylsalicylaldiminophenol-SBA-15, dubbed as Pd(II)ASIP@SBA-15, for amination reactions of aryl halides to synthesize secondary amines (2), has been synthesized and characterized. Pd(II)ASIP@SBA-15 has been synthesized by the covalent anchoring of 3-allylsalicylaldehyde over thiofunctionalized SBA-15, then further reaction with 2-aminophenol, followed by metallation process by using Pd(11)(OAc)(2). A specifically designed cheap and easily available organic ligand, 3-allylsalicylaldiminophenol (ASIP), was synthesized from 3-allylsalicylaldehyde and 2-aminophenol. Using this, the synthesis of Pd(II)ASIP@SBA-15 was carried out whereby the ligand providing an active co-ordination or chelating sites for palladium metal. This strategy helped in exposing the Pd(11)ASIP active sites from surface to channels of SBA-15 support during the reactions. The synthesized catalyst were characterized by CHN analysis, PXRD, Nitrogen sorption analyses, TG & DTA, FTIR, C-13 and Si-29 CPMASS NMR spectra, XPS, UV-Visible, SEM, EDAX and TEM. Pd(II)ASIP@SBA-15 catalyst was screened in heterogeneous amination reactions of aryl halides to produce N-aryl derivatives or secondary amines with high catalytic activity as revealed by turn over frequency (TOF) calculations. To explore the heterogeneous nature of catalysts, amination reactions were carried with neat Pd(II)ASIP complex and Pd(11)(OAc)(2) catalysts. The catalyst was recycled several times without much loss of activity and Sheldon hot filtration test has been performed. (C) 2017 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Proton spectra acquired at different hydration levels are analysed and interpreted in terms of water clusters of various sizes and distributions of water layers on the pore surface. For comparison, we also performed similar experiments on SBA-15. The formation of larger clusters at lower hydration suggests that the pores of PMOE are getting filled with water at lower hydration levels than those in SBA-15. For PMOE, the simultaneous presence of two major resonances in the ranges 3.6-4.1 ppm and 4.4-5.2 ppm and their behaviour upon hydration imply a water layer distribution that is the sum of two contributions, corresponding to fully filled and partially filled pores or pore segments. Furthermore, the behaviour mentioned above suggests that both radial and axial filling mechanisms play a significant role in the hydration process. For SBA-15, as a function of hydration, we observed a smooth variation in the proton chemical shift of the main dynamic resonance. In accordance with previous studies, this is attributed to the gradual increase in the average thickness of water layers with an increase in hydration, and to a pore filling mechanism that is predominantly radial.1 aVeena, V., S.1 aIllath, Kavya1 aLazar, Anish1 aVinod, C., P.1 aAjithkumar, T., G.1 aJayanthi, S. uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/distribution-water-pores-periodic-mesoporous-organosilicates-proton-solid-state-mas-nmr01427nas a2200157 4500008004100000245010500041210006900146260000800215300001000223490000700233520085200240100001801092700001701110700001801127856012401145 2018 eng d00aHighly selective aqueous phase hydrogenation of phenols over nanostructured RuO2 on MCM-41 catalysts0 aHighly selective aqueous phase hydrogenation of phenols over nan cFEB a36-430 v133 aSelective aqueous phase hydrogenation of phenol as well as its derivatives is important for the synthesis of chemical intermediates which are crucial for the manufacture of high-tonnage commodities and a multitude of value added platform chemicals.

Combining electron deficient Ru(II) coordination sites with organofunctionalized SBA-15, (L)Ru(Il)@SBA-15, result in a mild, neutral, water scavenger free and chemo-selective acetalization catalyst for cyclic/acyclic acetals. Vacant coordination sites of ruthenium in (L)Ru(II)@SBA-15 activates protecting groups as well as reactants simultaneously and restricts the reverse acetalization reaction. Synthesized (L)Ru(Il)@SBA-15 catalyst has been thoroughly characterized and act as competitive catalyst compared to conventional acid catalysts. (L) RuaD@SBA-15 performs high catalytic activity as well as selectivity within 20 min with high TOF. The catalyst can be recycled and reaction parameters are optimized.

Highly dispersed chromium oxide supported mesoporous MCM-41 nanosphere catalysts have been synthesized using a simple wet impregnation method. This work is devoted to a systematic study to reveal the active Cr sites in chromium oxide supported MCM-41 nanosphere catalysts for the selective oxidation of cyclohexane to cyclohexanone. To probe the nature of the active species, we synthesized 0.5-10wt% Cr loaded catalysts and characterized them by using XRD, UV/Vis spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, extended X-ray absorption fine structure analysis, X-ray absorption near edge structure analysis, N-2 sorption analysis, FTIR spectroscopy, (SiNMR)-Si-29 spectroscopy, SEM, and TEM. The liquid-phase oxidation of cyclohexane to cyclohexanone (99% selectivity) was performed under mild reaction conditions, and the results reveal clearly that the 5wt% Cr loaded catalyst was optimum for the reaction. The initial composition of isolated Cr3+ species in the catalyst is the major factor that influences the enhanced activity for cyclohexane oxidation.

Development of a heterogeneous catalyst capable of selective transformation of CO2 to valuable products still remains a challenge. In this article, we account for the surfactant-directed synthesis of a new framework-incorporated nitrogen-containing periodic mesoporous organosilica nanosphere (NPMO). A thoroughly characterized N-incorporated hybrid PMO was utilized as a platform for stabilizing well-dispersed and easily accessible Pd nanoparticles (Pd-NPMO) without using any stabilizing agents or expensive dendrimers. Further, this bifunctional hybrid catalyst has been demonstrated to heterogeneously catalyze aqueous phase CO2 hydrogenation (CO2/H-2 ratio 1:3) for the direct synthesis of formate under 4 MPa pressure and at 100 degrees C. To validate the superior performance of the Pd-NPMO catalyst, we compared the activity with Pd-SBA-15 catalysts, and the results showed a 10-fold increase in turnover frequency of 108 h(-1) using Pd on NPMO which envisaged the crucial role of nitrogen sites in this catalyst to boost the CO2 valorization to formate.

A heterogeneous Pd-NPMO hybrid-silicacatalyst is synthesized andits application for aqueous phase selective hydrogenation of phenolto cyclohexanone at near ambient temperature (40 degrees C) and underatmospheric hydrogen pressure is demonstrated. The homogeneously distributedPd nanoparticles on N-bridged hybrid mesoporous organosilica showedremarkable activity and selectivity for cyclohexanone compared tothe unmodified Pd-SBA-15 catalyst.
