Hydrolysis of methyl benzoate by MINP catalysts in a 25 mM HEPES buffer (pH 7.0) after 4 h at 40 °Ca.
| Entry | Catalyst | Yield (%) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | MINP(4a·5a + 8) | 85 ± 2 |
| 2 | MINP(4b·5a + 8) | 72 ± 2 |
| 3 | MINP(4c·5a + 8) | 46 ± 1 |
| 4 | MINP(4d·5a + 8) | 34 ± 2 |
| 5 | MINP(4e·5a + 8) | <5 |
| 6 | MINP(4a·5b + 8) | 55 ± 2 |
| 7 | NINP | <5 |
The conversion yields were determined by GC-MS analysis with p-xylene (600 μM) as the internal standard. [Methyl benzoate] = 600 μM. [MINP] = 15 μM.
