Abstract
Herein an able, facile, coherent, and environmentally benign synthesis of the C–O coupling reaction based on the functionalized mesoporous silica SBA-16 (CoII immobilized on mesoporous SBA-16 functionalized by aminated 3-glycidyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane with aminoguanidine nitrate), is described. The mesostructured nanocatalyst (SBA-16/GPTMS-NH2–CoII) is characterized by various analytical techniques such as FT-IR, small-angle XRD, XRD, BET, TEM, FE-SEM, EDX, EDX-mapping, and ICP-OES analysis. Cage-like mesoporous SBA-16 efficiently managed dispersed the metal and organic species in the well-ordered siliceous frameworks. It was found that the aforementioned mesostructured catalyst with a special structure and particle size distribution (3–8 nm) displayed great catalytic performance to promote of the C–O cross-coupling reaction from the iodobenzene and phenol in solvent-free conditions. Plus, SBA-16/GPTMS-NH2–CoII as an inimitable heterogeneous nanocatalyst can be readily separated from the reaction mixture by simple filtration under reaction conditions and recycled at least five times without any loss of its catalytic efficiency.
