Abstract

Effective epoxidation of alkenes using sodium periodate was accomplished with Manganese (III) tetrakis(p-sulfonatophenyl)porphyrin, [C44H26N4O12S4Na4], supported on ionic liquids-modified silica, Im-SiO2, under ultrasonic irradiation conditions is reported. This heterogeneous catalyst, [Mn(TPPS)@SiO2-Im] was characterized by elemental analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), FT-IR and UV–Vis spectroscopic methods. The synthesized hybrid catalyst was applied for efficient epoxidation of various alkenes with sodium periodate in acetonitrile under ultrasonic irradiation conditions. This solid catalyst can be easily recovered by simple filtration and reused several time without apparent loss of its catalytic activity.
