Activation and reactivity of epoxides on solid acid catalysts
摘要：
The aminolysis of epoxides over novel solid catalysts (Brönsted-acidic SBA-15 functionalized with propylsulfonic acid and Lewis-acidic Ti-MCM-41) is reported. The acidic properties of these catalysts were determined by FTIR spectroscopy and temperature-programmed desorption of pyridine and NH 3, respectively. The mesoporous solid acids of the present study are reusable and exhibit significantly higher catalytic activities than known catalysts for opening of the oxirane ring with nitrogen (aromatic and aliphatic amines)-containing and oxygen (alcohols)-containing nucleophiles. A range of β-amino alcohols with high regioselectivity and stereoselectivity were synthesized. Adsorption studies as well as the sigmoid shape of the conversion-versus-time plots show that the epoxide and amine compete for adsorption on the acidic sites ( SO 3H or Ti 4+) on the catalyst surface. Epoxide adsorption and activation on acid sites are the more critical processes. Catalytic activity decreases with increasing basicity of the amines and/or the alcohol, as well as the dielectric constant of the solvent.
