Summary

Ammonia-treated mesoporous silica (FSM-16) with specific silicon-nitrogen-hydrogen (SiNH2) sites shows basic catalytic activity. Paired SiNH2 and silicon-hydroxyl (SiOH) sites demonstrate superior performance in Knoevenagel condensation reactions.

  • Evaluation of catalytic activity in the Knoevenagel condensation reaction.

    • Main Results:

    • NH3-treated FSM-16 exhibits basic catalytic activity due to the presence of SiNH2 sites.
    • SiNH2 and SiOH pair sites, formed at lower treatment temperatures, show higher turnover frequencies (TFs).
    • Single SiNH2 sites exhibit lower TFs compared to paired sites.

    Conclusions:

    • The formation of paired SiNH2 and SiOH sites enhances catalytic efficiency in Knoevenagel condensation.
    • Surface site engineering of mesoporous silica is a viable strategy for developing effective basic catalysts.
    • Lower ammonia treatment temperatures are optimal for generating highly active catalytic sites on FSM-16.
