Abstract
AbstractOrdered mesoporous SBA‐15 supported chiral phosphine gold (I) complexes were successfully developed. The gold(I) complexes were covalently immobilized on mercaptopropyl modified SiO2 surface through radical reaction. In this way, the chiral carbon and chiral sulfur of the homogenous catalyst were perfectly remained in situ. And thus, the prepared catalysts demonstrated highly effective asymmetric cycloaddition activity, which was likely because the chiral induction effect of the Au complex was hardly influenced by this immobilization method. Moreover, they could be easily recovered by simple filtration and directly used for the subsequent catalytic runs. The prepared catalyst was highly stable and efficient without obvious activity loss after eight cycles.
