Abstract
In the present study, tetrahydropyranylation of alcohols and phenols with 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran (DHP) using tetrakis(p-aminophenyl)porphyrinatotin(IV) trifluoromethanesulfonate, [SnIV(TNH2PP)(OTf)2], and tetrakis(p-aminophenyl)porphyrinatotin(IV) tetrafluoroborate, [SnIV(TNH2PP)(BF4)2], supported on multi-wall carbon nanotubes as new catalytic systems is investigated. These new catalysts, [SnIV(TNH2PP)(OTf)2@MWCNT] and [SnIV(TNH2PP)(BF4)2@MWCNT], were characterized using elemental analysis, FT-IR spectroscopic techniques, scanning electron microscopy and diffuse reflectance UV–Vis spectroscopic methods. In these catalytic systems, an optimization on the amounts of catalysts and amount of DHP was done in the tetrahydropyranylation of alcohols and phenols with DHP and the best outcomes were received in the presence of 0.01 mmol (40 mg) of [SnIV(TNH2PP)(OTf)2@MWCNT] and [SnIV(TNH2PP)(BF4)2@MWCNT] with 2 mmol of DHP. Efficiency and reusability are two important features of these new heterogenized catalysts for tetrahydropyranylation of primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols as well as phenols at room temperature. These catalysts were recovered several times with no loss on their initial activity, which indicates their high reusability and stability.
