磷酸铜锆催化剂上醇选择性氧化（英文）

The catalytic activity of copper zirconium phosphate(ZPCu) in the selective oxidation of alcohols to their corresponding ketones or aldehydes, using H2O2 as an oxidizing agent, was studied. The oxida‐tion reaction was performed without any organic solvent, phase‐transfer catalyst, or additive. Steric factors associated with the substrates influenced the reaction. The catalyst was characterized using X‐ray diffraction, inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy, energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. It was shown that the interlayer distance increased from 0.74 to 0.80 nm and the crystallinity was reduced after Cu2+ intercalation into the layers. This catalyst can be recovered and reused three times without significant loss of activity and selectivity.
