Catalytic application of an organosuperbase denderon grafted on mesoporous SBA-15 and related palladium complex in the aerobic oxidation of alcohols

An efficient synthetic method for successful synthesis of amine denderon on SBA-15 and related Pd (II) complex has been developed. This modified mesoporous material was characterized by various techniques such as TEM, XRD, atomic absorption spectroscopy, N2 adsorption-desorption, and FT-IR. The catalytic activities of the prepared catalysts were investigated by employing aerobic oxidation of alcohols as model reactions. The yields of the products were in the range from 75% to 92%. The catalyst can be readily recovered and reused at least 5 consecutive cycles without significant leaching and loss its catalytic activity.
