Abstract

Transition metal (Fe, Co) and organic silanol modified mesoporous titanium phosphates were synthesized using the surfactant templating process and evaluated by the selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol with H2O2 in water. All the materials were characterized by FT-IR, powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron micrograph studies, UV–Vis and TG–DTA. The effects of the surface hydrophobicity and transition metal incorporation on the catalytic performance of MTP were investigated. Among these catalysts, Fe-MTP showed the highest catalytic activity under mild conditions without any organic solvent, giving 80.5 % of benzyl alcohol conversion and 96.4 % of benzaldehyde selectivity.
