Direct Oxidation of Benzene to Phenol on Manganese Pyrophosphate with Hydrogen Peroxide

Selective hydroxylation of benzene derivatives and alkanes with hydrogen peroxide catalysed by a manganese complex incorporated into mesoporous silica–alumina

Selective hydroxylation of benzene to phenol with hydrogen peroxide was efficiently catalysed by a manganese complex incorporated into mesoporous silica–alumina.

Hydrophobic Nature of the Support: a Significant Effect on Selective Oxidation of Cyclohexane with Pure Oxygen

The relationship between the hydrophobic characteristic of supportsand the reactivity of the liquid oxidation of cyclohexane using oxygen as oxidant was investigated. Co3O4 supported on amorphous silica was silylated with organosilane and characterized by FT-IR, contact angle testing and the retention of cyclohexane and cyclohexanone tesing on GC. Compared with unsilylated catalyst, the conversion of cycloheaxane was greatly enhanced with the silylated catalyst. And the correlation of reactivity and hydrophobicity of was observed.
