The catalytic activity of Sn-MCM-41 and Sn-SBA-15 for nopol synthesis from β-pinene andparaformaldehyde was compared in this work. The materials were prepared by the hydrothermal and theincipient wetness impregnation methods using stannous chloride as Sn precursor. In contrast tohydrothermal methods, impregnation leads to more active and selective materials for nopol productionfrom β-pinene. β-Pinene conversion over Sn-MCM-41 and Sn-SBA-15 was similar. In the materialsobtained by hydrothermal procedures, Sn(IV) species were detected as bulk SnO in MCM-41 and 2isomorphously substituting Si in SBA-15.
