Controllable synthesis of novel nanoporous manganese oxide catalysts for the direct synthesis of imines from alcohols and amines
A novel template-free oxalate route was applied to synthesize different mesoporous manganese oxides (amorphous manganese oxide (AMO)

) in the narrow temperature range from 350℃ to 400℃ by controlling the calcination conditions
which were employed as the efficient catalysts for the oxidative coupling of alcohols with amines to imines. The chemical and structural properties of the manganese oxides were characterized by the methods of thermogravimetry analysis and heat flow (TG-DSC)

and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) techniques. The structures of different manganese oxides were confirmed by characterization. The M-350 (AMO) presented the maximum surface area

and the higher adsorbed oxygen species compared to other samples. Among the catalysts
M-350 showed the best catalytic performance using air as an oxidant
and the conversion of benzyl alcohol (BA) and the selectivity of

-benzylideneaniline (NBA) reached as high as 100% and 97.1% respectively at the lower reaction temperature (80℃) for 1 h. M
-350 had also the highest TOF value (0.0100 mmol·mg

) compared to the other manganese oxide catalysts. The catalyst was reusable and gave 95.8% conversion after 5 reuse tests
the XRD pattern of the reactivated M-350 did not show any obvious change. Lattice oxygen mobility and (Mn

ratio were found to play the important roles in the catalytic activity of aerobic reactions.
