A vanadyl complex grafted to periodic mesoporous organosilica : a green catalyst for selective hydroxylation of benzene to phenol
Selective benzene hydroxylation: A periodic mesoporous organosilica embedded with a vanadyl(IV) acetylacetonate complex has been synthesized through a co-condensation method. This system is a catalyst for direct hydroxylation of benzene to phenol, presenting a selectivity of 100 % towards the phenol...

| Summary: | Selective benzene hydroxylation: A periodic mesoporous organosilica embedded with a vanadyl(IV) acetylacetonate complex has been synthesized through a co-condensation method. This system is a catalyst for direct hydroxylation of benzene to phenol, presenting a selectivity of 100 % towards the phenol formation as well as an excellent catalytic recyclability (see scheme). |
