Abstract
Solid acid catalyst, bentonite-supported polytrifluoromethanesulfosiloxane (B-PTFMSS) has been for the first time prepared and used in the Friedel–Crafts acylation of ferrocene with various acyl chlorides. The catalytic activities were influenced by reaction time, reaction temperature, solvent and loaded amount of B-PTFMSS. It was found that the new catalyst B-PTFMSS possessed the advantages of high activities giving similar yield of aliphatic acyl ferrocene (>70%) as conventional Lewis acid catalyst aluminum chloride and it can be used repeatedly and easily regenerated. B-PTFMSS has also been characterized by IR spectra, pyridine adsorbed IR, specific surface area and XRD.
