This work describes two strategies for immobilizing Zn(II) catalysts: anchorage of a [ZnCl2(N,N)] type complex on silica and decoration of PAMAM-G0-3 dendrimers with analogous metal pendants. Both types of catalysts were able to catalyze the trans-esterification of neutral and acid soybean oil, and could be easily recycled through filtration techniques. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V.
