Abstract

Herein, an l-cysteine-paired ionic copolymer (DVB-[MimLcy]n) with mesoporosity was prepared by free radical copolymerization of divinylbenzene (DVB) and imidazolium ionic liquids (ILs), followed by anion-exchange with l-cysteine. Because of the rich functional groups of NH2, SH, and COO– and the porous framework, the DVB-[MimLcy]3 was revealed to be an ideal stabilizer for metal nanoparticles (NPs). Highly uniform dispersed small Au NPs (2–3 nm) immobilized on DVB-[MimLcy]3 (Aua/DVB-[MimLcy]3) can act as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for additive-free synthesis of imines through coupling of a broad range of alcohols and organic amines and can be easily recovered and steadily reused several times.
