Abstract
Highly ordered mesoporous Co3O4, NiO, and their metals were synthesized by nanocasting method using there corresponding mesoporous SBA-15 silica as a template. The obtained porous metal oxides have high surface areas, large pore volume, and a narrow pore size distribution. The N2-adsorption data for mesoporous metal oxides have provided the BET area of 257.7 m2 g−1 and the total pore volume of 0.46 cm3 g−1. The mesoporous metals were employed as a catalyst in the synthesis of (S)-3-pyrrolidinol from chiral (S)-4-chloro-3-hydroxybutyronitrile, and a high yield to (S)-3-pyrrolidinol-salt was obtained on the mesoporous Co metal catalyst.
