Abstract
A novel zinc metal complex was synthesized by the reaction of 3-(diethylamino) propylamine to zinc acetate.The structure of the complex was characterized by IR、1H NMR and elemental analysis.The catalytic activity of the complex for the reaction of aromatic aldehyde to nitromethane was studied,and the influences of solvent,catalyst loading,triethylamine and catalyst reuse cycle on the reaction were surveyed.The results showed that the zinc complex exhibited a good catalytic performance with the assistance of triethylamine in the following conditions:the solvent was methanol and the catalyst loading was 12mol%.What was more,the yields of theB-nitroalcohol products were beyond 70% after the catalyst was repeated about 5 times.
