Abstract

Herein, we have reported synthesis, characterization and catalytic activity of an efficient and reusable silica-based catalyst MCM-41@CP@PAL@Cu. The catalyst was prepared by the anchoring of Cu(II)-Schiff base complex on mesoporous MCM-41 grafted with -chloro group on the surface. The obtained catalyst was characterized with various analytical methods such as FT-IR, Low angle P-XRD, TGA, N2 adsorption–desorption, SEM, TEM and MPAES. The catalyst composition and chemical state of Cu metal identified using X-ray photoelectrons spectroscopy. The catalyst MCM-41@CP@PAL@Cu employed for the conversion of various alkenes to their epoxides using tert-butyl-hydroperoxide (tert-BuOOH, TBHP) oxidant and acetonitrile as a solvent. In present model reaction, the yield of epoxide obtained was 99%. The yield of 99% yield of the epoxide obtained with model reaction and. The catalyst can be reused minimum six times.
