TiO2 nanoparticles/melamine Tri sulfonic acid (MTSA) supported on silica gel as an efficient catalytic system for simple, one pot, solvent-free and environmentally benign process for synthesis of dihydropyrimidines via Biginelli reaction at 110 °C is described. It was found that the catalyst is reusable and exhibited remarkable activity. The catalyst can be easily separated and reused several t...

In this paper, silica gel supported titanium dioxide particles (TiO2/SiO2) prepared by acid-catalyzed sol–gel method was as photocatalyst in the degradation of acid orange 7 (AO7) in water under visible light irradiation. The particles were characterized by X-ray diffraction, BET specific surface area determination, and point of zero charge measurement. The supported catalyst had large surface ...

vanadium supported on highly ordered nanoporous silica (vox-lus-1) was synthesized and characterized by xrd, nitrogen adsorption‑desorption isotherms and uv-visible spectrophotometer. direct oxidation of benzene to phenol in liquid phase by h2o2 peroxide were examined by using various solvents (methanol, acetone, acetic acid, acetonitryl). the maximum yield (25%) and selectivity (73%) of the ph...

nano-silica supported titanium tetrachloride (ticl4.sio2) was prepared and used as an acid catalyst for the 14-aryl or alkyl-14h-dibenzo[a,,j]xanthenesreaction under solvent-free conditions. compared to the classical 14-aryl or alkyl-14h-dibenzo[a,j]xanthenesreaction conditions, this method consistently has the advantage of excellent yields, mild reaction conditions, ease of workup, survival of...

Activities during ethylene/1-hexene copolymerization were found to increase using the mixed titania/silica-supported MAO with rac-Et[Ind]2ZrCl2 metallocene catalyst. Energy Dispersive X-ray spectorcopy (EDX) indicated that the titania was apparently located on the outer surface of silica and acted as a spacer to anchor MAO to the silica surface. IR spectra revealed the Si-O-Ti stretching at 980...

A modern industrial route for the manufacture of methyl methacrylate involves the reaction of methyl propanoate and formaldehyde over a silica-supported Cs catalyst. Although the process has been successfully commercialised, little is known about the surface interactions responsible for the forward chemistry. This work concentrates upon the interaction of methyl propanoate over a representative...
