Abstract

The selective oxidation of cyclohexane to cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone using hydrogen peroxide has been studied over TS-2, a titanium silicate molecular sieve with a MEL structure. The reaction is found to be catalyzed by the Ti present in the framework structure, the activity being proportional to the Ti content.
