Abstract

Surface functionalization of SBA-15 followed by its reaction with Cu (OAc) 2 has been carried out to develop a new Cu-grafted functionalized mesoporous material, which catalyzes one-pot three component coupling of different aryl halides with thiourea and benzyl bromide in aqueous medium to produce aryl thioethers in very good yields (80– 88%).
