title: Solvent-washable polymer templated synthesis of mesoporous materials and solid-acid nanocatalysts in one-pot.
abstract: We report a new and simple one-pot synthetic method to produce mesoporous silica and nanoporous solid acid catalyst capable of catalyzing pinacole-pinacolone rearrangement and esterification reactions, by preparing a solvent washable phosphonated triblock copolymer template and self-assembling it in the presence of alkoxysilane.
