Abstract:

VO2+ and its complexes with ethylenediamine (en), acetylacetonate (acac), 2, 2’-bipyridine(bpy) ligands, immobilized within nanoreactors of Al-MCM-41 designated as VO2+/Al-MCM-41 or VOL2/Al-MCM-41, were prepared and characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), FT-IR, BET nitrogen adsorption-desorption and chemical analysis techniques. VO2+/Al-MCM-41 and VOL2/Al-MCM-41 were found to catalyze the epoxidation of trans-stilbene, norbornene, and geraniol with aqueous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in refluxing acetonitrile with 30-80% conversion and up to 98% selectivity toward the formation of the corresponding epoxides. On the other hand, under similar conditions, these alkenes underwent epoxidation with 50 to 99% conversion and up to 100 % selectivitiy in the presence of VO(acac)2/Al-MCM-41with tert-butylhydroperoxide (TBHP) as oxidant.

Modified Titanium Content in Titanosilicates Mesoporous Molecular Sieves MCM-41 as Selective Catalyst for Epoxidation of Alkenes

Ti-MCM-41 was synthesized at pH 3, 7 and 11. The titanium content was determined by AAS and found to be 4%, 3.2% and 4.5%, respectively. In order to increase the titanium content in Ti-MCM-41, Ti(IV) ions were grafted onto Ti-MCM-41 using TiCl4 in toluene and Ti(OBu)4 in ethanol. The incorporation of Ti was determined to be 28% and 30%, respectively. The oxidation of olefins such as cyclopenten...

Microwave-assisted thioacetalization of carbonyl compounds using Al-MCM-41 as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst

In this project various types of carbonyl compounds were efficiently converted to their corresponding 1,3-oxathiolanes  with 2-mercaptoethanol in the presence of catalytic amount of Al-MCM-41 with microwave energy. The catalyst can be reused several times without loss of its catalytic activity. Very short reaction times, reusability of the catalyst, and easy workup are noteworthy advantages of ...
