Abstract

Catalytic epoxidation of styrene by molecular oxygen over a novel copper hydroxyphosphate catalyst, Cu2(OH)PO4, was studied. Catalytic data show that the catalyst Cu2(OH)PO4 is very active, and the main products are benzaldehyde and styrene epoxide. Some important factors associated with the catalytic activity and selectivity have been investigated extensively.
