Basic catalysts for carbon–carbon addition reactions were synthesized by immobilization of amine species on silica supports. Tetraethylenepentamine was impregnated and immobilized on amorphous silica (SiO 2 ) and SBA-15 using an epoxy resin. The basicity of the catalysts was determined by adsorption...
