| Abstract: |
Hierarchically porous monolithic silica shows promise as a carrier material for immobilized organocatalysts. Conventional analysis usually includes physisorption, infrared spectroscopy and elemental analysis, among others, to elucidate the pore space and degree of functionalization of the material. However, these methods do not yield information about the spatial distribution of the organic species inside the monolithic reactor. In this work, time‐of‐flight secondary ion mass spectrometry has been applied to characterize the surface of organically functionalized silica monoliths. Cross sections of a silica monolith functionalized with 4‐dimethylaminopyridine were analyzed and the results were compared with physisorption and elemental analysis experiments of the same material. This way, insight into the radial distribution of the catalyst could be achieved, which might assist in interpreting the performance of such reactors in heterogeneous flow catalysis.
