Synthesis and characterization of a novel nanocatalyst based on Fe(III), loaded on SBA-15

Iron Schiff-base complex containing N-O chelating ligand, loaded on SBA-15 as a novel nanocatalyst. It hasbeen prepared by the reaction of Fe(III) Schiff-base complex and SBA-15. The Fe(III) Schiff-base complex wassynthesized by the reaction of salycilaldehyde and (3-aminopropyl)trimethoxysilane in methanol and subsequentcomplexation with Fe(NO3)3. Characterization of the entitled nanoporous material was carried out by powder X-raydiffraction XRD, TEM, BET, and IR spectroscopic analysis which revealed out the retention of the textural properties ofSBA-15 during the grafting procedure. The modified SBA-15 materials show hexagonal mesoscopic order. The mostimportant advantages of Fe(III)-SBA-15 nanocatalyst, are, enhanced selectivity, environmental compatibility,economical availability and reusablility.
