Abstract
- Abstract: In present work, the [PdCl4]2− ions were successfully supported on as-synthesized [CTA+]MCM-41 materials through adsorption method. Subsequently, the composite materials were reduced by sodium borohydride, followed by being extracted of [CTA+] surfactants with acidified ethanol. The resulted solid (denoted as Pd-M41-AE) could be used as an efficient catalyst for the solvent-free aerobic oxidation of benzylic alcohol under atmospheric pressure. The structures of the samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorption–desorption, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and thermogravimetry (TG) techniques. 0.4%Pd-M41-AE exhibited high activity (turnover frequency of 4344h−1) for the oxidation of benzyl alcohol, remarkably superior than other kinds of Pd-M41 at 100°C. Moreover, the superior turnover frequencies (69,162h−1 for benzyl alcohol, 69,920h−1 for 1-phenylethanol and 117,130h−1 for cinnamyl alcohol, respectively) were achieved over 0.05%Pd-M41-AE at 160°C. Recycling studies proved the recyclability of Pd-M41-AE as a heterogeneous catalyst, which did not lose the catalytic activity after four recycles appreciably. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
