Heterogeneous catalysts are used for control of environmental pollution. Heterogeneous catalysts are easily separated from the reaction mixture, thus allowing their recovery and re-use. There is a need for catalysts that are efficient under mild conditions. Here, we show that silica-supported antimony(III) chloride (SbCl3/SiO2) acts as a highly efficient heterogeneous Lewis acid catalyst for the Paal–Knorr...
