Organic polymers/inorganic zirconium hydrogen phosphate (ZSPP, ZPS-IPPA, and ZPS-PVPA) functionalized with 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane were prepared and used to support chiral MnIII (salen) complexes (Jacobsen’s catalyst). Different characterization methods demonstrated that the chiral MnIII (salen) complexes was successfully supported on the surface of the carrier (ZSPP, ZPS-IPPA, or ZPS-PVPA) through a 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane group spacer. The supported catalysts effectively catalyzed epoxidation of styrene with m-chloroperbenzoic acid (m-CPBA) as an oxidant in the presence of N-methylmorpholine N-oxide (NMO) as an axial base. These results (ee%, 53.3–63.9) were significantly better than those achieved under a homogeneous counterpart (ee%, 46.2). Moreover, it is obvious that there was no significant decrease in catalytic activity after the catalyst 3 was recycled four times (cons%: from 95.0 to 92.6; ee%: from 64.7 to 60.1). Further recycles of catalyst 3 resulted in poor conversions, although the enantioselectivity obtained was still higher than that of corresponding homogeneous catalyst even after eight times. After the end of the eighth reaction, the solid catalyst was allowed to stand in 2 mol/L of dilute hydrochloric acid overnight, prompting an unexpected discovery that the catalytic activity of the catalyst was recovered again at the 9th and 10th cycles of the catalyst.

Manganese (III) salen complexes have been reported as epoxidation catalysts. It is caused a major breakthrough in the enantioselective epoxidation of alkenes into epoxide compounds. This catalyst was synthesized from salicylaldehyde derivatives. Based on the structure, salicylaldehyde is an isosteric nature of 7-folmylindole, consequently opened the door to an array of fascinating and versatile ligand systems, and offer tremendous scope for molecular designe, because of the greatly enhanced capacity for substitution of indoles compared with phenols. Initial target of the project to synthesize of 7-formylindole. There are numerous strategies and methodes to achieve the target molecules. Further study of reaction mechanism of a useful target compound could be explanated and developed as a new class of catalyst. Key word: Epoxidation catalyst, indole, organometal catalyst.
