Mesoporous Molecular Sieves as Advanced Supports for Olefin Metathesis Catalysts

摘要

Summary: Siliceous mesoporous molecular sieves MCM-41, MCM-48 and SBA-15 and organised mesoporous alumina represent progressive supports for new heterogeneous catalysts for olefin metathesis and metathesis polymerization. In combination with Mo and Re oxides they provide catalysts of considerably higher activity in comparison with those based on conventional silica and alumina. Immobilization of Mo and Ru alkylidenes on these materials led to the highly active and selective catalysts with negligible leaching of transition metal.
