Abstract

Mn–MCM-41 was synthesized by the hydrothermal method. The synthesized material was characterized by various physicochemical techniques such as small angle X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and diffuse reflectance ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy. The gas-phase cyclohexanol and air reaction over Mn–MCM-41 molecular sieve was studied for the first time. The conversion is almost constant even up to 5 h, and follows a parabolic behavior with respect to temperature. The conversion reaches a maximum at 350 °C and selectivity towards cyclohexene is increased with temperature. The conversion and cyclohexene selectivity were increased with flow rate.
