The catalytic performance of highly active cobalt(II) supported on mesoporous SBA-15 materials for the Pechmann reaction was investigated. SBA-15 supported cobalt(II) nanocatalyst was found to be efficient and easily recoverable in the Pechmann reaction of phenols and beta-ketoesters to their corresponding coumarin derivatives under solvent-free conditions. The supported cobalt catalyst could be easily recovered after reaction completion and reused twelve times with an excellent durability and without any noticeable loss in activity.
