Abstract

The mesoporous materials having bimodal pore structure were synthesized by treatment of dimethylcarbonate (DMC) in the presence of metal salts as a catalyst. The pore system was characterized by BET, TEM analysis and by comparing the catalytic activity under the same conditions. The chiral (salen) Co-MX3 immobilized on SBA-15 and MCM-48 which were partially desilylated by DMC showed higher activity for the enantioselective kinetic resolution of terminal epoxides with H2O and phenols, relative to original SBA-15 and MCM-48 having regular pore channels. The heterogeneous catalysts can offer practical advantages of the facile separation from reactants and products, as well as recovery and reuse.
