Abstract Chiral heterogeneous catalysts have been synthesized by grafting of silyl derivatives of (1R, 2R)- or (1S, 2S)-1,2-diphenylethane-1,2-diamine on SBA-15 mesoporous support. The mesoporous material SBA-15 and so-prepared chiral heterogeneous catalysts were characterized by a combination of different techniques such as X-ray diffractometry (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area. Results showed that (1R, 2R)- and (1S, 2S)-1,2-diphenylethane-1,2-diamine were successively immobilized on SBA-15 mesoporous support. Chiral heterogeneous catalysts and their homogenous counterparts were tested in enantioselective transfer hydrogenation of aromatic ketones and enantioselective Michael addition of acetylacetone to β-nitroolefin derivatives. The catalysts demonstrated notably high catalytic conversions (up to 99%) with moderate enantiomeric excess (up to 30% ee) for the heterogeneous enantioselective transfer hydrogenation. The catalytic performances for enantioselective Michael reaction showed excellent activities (up to 99%) with poor enantioselectivities. Particularly, the chiral heterogeneous catalysts could be readily recycled for Michael reaction and reused in three consecutive catalytic experiments with no loss of catalytic efficacies.

Introduction Catalysis is one of the most important key technologies for the preparation of organic compounds that facilitate the life of human beings [1–3]. Many products such as modern drugs and agrochemicals can proceed under the catalysis of organic reactions in the presence of homogenous or heterogeneous catalysts [4–9]. After the thalidomide tragedy [10–12], the certain drugs have been intended to contain single enantiomer in consistent with the regulations of FDA [13]. Homogeneous enantioselective catalysis is one of the powerful methods used for many years to meet the demand for enantiopure compounds in pharmaceutical field [5–7]. In this method, prochiral starting compounds can be converted into chiral products as a result of the reaction catalyzed by a small amount of a chiral ligand in enantioselective catalysis. To date, a large number of chiral catalysts with very hi
