Continuous flow catalysis has been attracting significant interest due to its remarkable advantages over traditional batch reactions. In this work, a facile and broad-spectrum hydrothermal approach has been developed to construct polyoxometalate-modified reduced graphene oxide (POM@rGO) foam, which worked as a monolith reactor for efficient continuous flow catalysis of epoxide ring-opening reactions. The porous structures of rGO foam allow the high dispersion of the POM catalyst onto the substrate through electrostatic interactions. Specifically, a phosphotungstic acid (H3PW12O40, denoted as PW12)-modified rGO (PW12@rGO) monolith reactor exhibits remarkable catalytic activity and durability towards epoxide ring-opening reactions with alcohols, achieving 99% conversion and 92% selectivity for the methanolysis product in 10 min under ambient conditions without stirring. Notably, while coupling with a micro-injection pump, such PW12@rGO foam can work as an efficient continuous flow reactor towards methanolysis of styrene oxide for 38 h with 99% conversion and over 90% selectivity, reaching a turnover number (TON) as high as 28?044.

Cellulose sulfate was synthesized by esterification of α-cellulose with concentrated sulfuric acid at ?10°C in ethanol. Cellulose is mainly sulfated on 3-, 6- and 3, 6-positions of the cellulose. It acts as a heterogeneous catalyst for the ring-opening of epoxides with alcohols or anilines and the Friedel-Crafts reaction between N-benzylindole and crotonaldehyde at room temperature. Methanolysis of cyclic epoxides, styrene oxide, terminal aliphatic epoxides, and glycidyl ethers were carried out using the catalyst (0.4–6.8 mg/mmol of epoxide) and afforded the corresponding products in 53–97% isolated yields after 10 min–24 h. Cellulose sulfate was successfully recycled and reused up to 3 catalytic cycles for the ring-opening of styrene oxide with methanol.

A novel macromolecular-metal coordination complex, MBA-cross-linked PNVP/FeCl3 material was fabricated by immobilization of water intolerant ferric chloride onto the porous cross-linked poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) carrier beads as a macromolecular ligand or carrier which was prepared by suspension free-radical copolymerization of N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone (NVP) and N,N′-methylene bis-acrylamide (MBA) as a crosslinking agent in water. The obtained PNVP/FeCl3 was characterized by UV/vis and FT-IR spectroscopies, TGA, FE-SEM, EDX, and ICP techniques. This heterogenized version of ferric chloride is a convenient and safe alternative to highly water intolerant ferric chloride. The catalytic performance of (PNVP/FeCl3) as an efficient and recyclable polymeric Lewis acid catalyst was appropriately probed in the regio-and stereoselective nucleophilic ring opening of various epoxides with various alcohols in excellent yields with TOF up to 182.48 h?1 without generating any waste. The activity data indicate that this heterogeneous catalyst is very active and could be easily recovered, and reused at least six times without appreciable loss of activity indicating its stability under experimental conditions.
