Oxidation of tetrahydrofuran with hydrogen peroxide in the presence of host (zeolite Y)/guest (1,9-dialkyl-1,3,7,9,11,15-hexaazacyclohexadecane copper(II) complexes,[Cu(R_2[16]aneN_6)]~(2+)) nanocomposite materials

摘要

Nanodimensional pores of zeolite-Y containing;1,9-dialkyl-1,3,7,9,11,15-hexaazacyclohexadecane,[Cu(R_2[16]aneN_6)]~(2+) (R=Me,Et,Bu and Benzyl);have been prepared by the in situ one-pot template synthesis of formaldehyde and 1,3-propylenediamine (1,3-pn) with alkyl and benzyl amine within the nanodimensional pores of zeolite-Y.The host-guest nanocomposite materials catalyze the oxidation of tetrahydrofuran with hydrogen peroxide.
