Abstract:
Mesoporous zirconium-silicates have been prepared using two different methodologies, evaporation-induced self-assembly and solventless organometallic precursor dry impregnation of commercial SiO2. The samples were characterized by elemental analysis, XRD, N2 adsorption, TEM, DRS UV–vis and Raman spectroscopic techniques. The catalytic performance of the Zr-Si catalysts was assessed in the epoxidation of three representative alkenes, cyclohexene, cyclooctene and caryophyllene, as well as in the oxidation of methyl phenyl sulfide using aqueous hydrogen peroxide as a green oxidant, with special attention drawn to the structure/activity relationship and catalyst stability issues. The key factors which affect substrate conversion and epoxide selectivity have been defined. The catalysts with larger contents of oligomeric ZrO2 species revealed higher activity. The nature of alkene and, in particular, its molecular hindrance is crucial, since the adsorption of the epoxide product is the main factor leading to fast catalyst deactivation. In fact, bulky epoxides do not show this effect. After optimization, the oxidation of caryophyllene gave endocyclic monoepoxide with 77% selectivity at 87% alkene conversion. Methyl phenyl sulfoxide afforded 37% of sulfoxide and 63% of sulfone at 57% sulfide conversion. The nature of catalysis was truly heterogeneous and no Zr leaching was observed.
