Abstract
The paper presents a successful sonochemical attempt to synthesize mesoporous chiral titania using a chiral inorganic precursor and dodecylamine, as the surfactant template. The resulting porous structure was characterized by nitrogen sorption experiments, transmission electron microscopy, and small-angle XRD. The enantioselectivity of this mesoporous titania after the extraction of the amine was examined by selective adsorption of enantiomers and racemic aqueous solution of camphor. The selective adsorption was measured by circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy.
