Zusammenfassung: | Microporous and mesoporous silica derived from biogenous iron oxide is an attractive catalyst for various organic reactions. Biogenous iron oxide contains structural silicon, and amorphous silica remains after iron oxide is dissolved in concentrated hydrochloric acid. The amorphous silica containing slight amounts of iron (Si/Fe = ∼150) is composed of ∼6-nm-diameter granular particles. The amorphous silica has a large surface area of 540 m2/g with micropores (1.4 nm) and mesopores ( |
