The acidic properties of these catalysts were determined by FTIR spectroscopy and temperature-programmed desorption of pyridine and NH3, respectively. The mesoporous solid acids of the present study are reusable and exhibit significantly higher catalytic activities than known catalysts for opening of the oxirane ring with nitrogen (aromatic and aliphatic amines)-containing and oxygen (alcohols)-containing nucleophiles. A range of beta-amino, alcohols with high regioselectivity and stereoselectivity were synthesized. Adsorption studies as well as the sigmoid shape of the conversion- versus-time plots show that the epoxide and amine compete for adsorption on the acidic sites (-SO3H or Ti4+) on the catalyst surface. Epoxide adsorption and activation on acid sites are the more critical processes. Catalytic activity decreases with increasing basicity of the amines and/or the alcohol, as well as the dielectric constant of the solvent. (C) 2007 Elsevier Inc.

The conversion of epoxides to beta-amino alcohols is nearly 100%. In the reaction with styrene oxide, regioselective beta-amino alcohol formation is higher with aromatic than with aliphatic amines. Strong Lewis acidic Zn(2+) ions in the catalyst are probably the active sites in this reaction.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1-2</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2.294</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bordoloi, Ankur</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hwang, Young Kyu</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hwang, Jin-Soo</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Halligudi, Shivaraj B.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mesoporous silica immobilized cobalt complex: an efficient catalyst for epoxides ring opening by aromatic amines under ambient conditions</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Catalysis Communications</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">beta-Amino alcohols</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">CobpbH(2)Cl(2)2H(2)O complex</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Epoxide ring opening</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Immobilization</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SBA-15</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2009</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MAY</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PO BOX 211, 1000 AE AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1398-1403</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;{Cobalt complex, CobpbH(2)Cl(2)2H(2)O [where&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2.827</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
