Abstract
Gold nanoparticles were decorated on/into the SBA-15 channels covalently functionalized by new class of symmetrical tridentate NNN-pincer ligand. This provides a unique support for stabilization of Au NPs preventing agglomeration due to the strong ligation of pincer ligand. The catalyst proved to be highly active for the reduction of nitroarenes. The kinetics study showed that the rate constant for the current protocol are comparable or larger than the reported ones in literature. The catalyst also showed high recoverability and reusability up to ten times without significant loss of activity and leaching or aggregation of Au NPs (overall TOF = 8798).
