chemoselective and green heterogeneous catalytic system of immobilized Ru(II)-phenanthroline complexes on amino functionalised MCM-41 material for the chemoselective hydrogenation of unsaturated ketones to unsaturated alcohols is demonstrated using water as a solvent The XRD and FTIR spectra show the highly ordered hexagonal nature of the MCM-41 even after encapsulation of the ruthenium complex The complex retains its configuration after anchoring as was confirmed by FTIR and UV-Vis analysis The detailed reaction parametric effect was studied for the hydrogenation of 3 methylpent-3-en-2-one to achieve complete conversion up to &amp;gt;99% chemoselectivity of 3-methylpent-3-en-2 ol The anchored heterogeneous catalysts were recycled effectively and reused five times with marginal changes in activity and selectivity The use of water as a solvent not only afforded high activity for the hydroge nation reaction compared to organic solvents but also afforded a green

ruthenium phenanthroline metal complexes in amino functionalized MCM-41 in biphasic aqueous reaction medium was investigated. The catalyst was characterized by XRD, TEM, surface analysis, FT-IR and UV-vis to understand the morphology, complex geometry, and XPS such that the oxidation state of the metal complex inside the MCM-41 framework could be understood. The use of water as a solvent, not only gives high activity and selectivity for hydrogenation of acetylacetone, but also gives a path for an environmentally safer process. The optimizations of ligand, metal to ligand ratio, the choice of solvent and other reaction parameters were studied in detail. The heterogeneous catalytic system gave a higher degree of chemoselectivity (99%) towards 4-hydroxypentan-2-one as compared to homogeneous catalyst when hydrogenation was carried out using water as a solvent. The immobilized ruthenium-phenanthroline complex was easily separated and reused. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V.
