Abstract
Nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes (N-CNTs) with different degrees of nitrogen doping were synthesized. The effects of nitrogen in the N-CNTs on the hydrophilic–hydrophobic properties of carbon nanotubes and their activity in the decomposition of Н2О2 were studied. Various approaches to the surface modification of N-CNTs by alkyl groups were studied, and the high resistance of N-CNTs to alkylation was found. Heterogeneous catalysts based on the polyoxometallate [PO4{WO(O2)2}4]3– and N-CNTs with a low degree of nitrogen doping (≤1.8 at %) were successfully synthesized. The high efficiency of the catalysts in the liquid-phase reactions of selective oxidation of alkenes using H2O2 as a green oxidizer was found, and the heterogeneous nature of catalysis was confirmed.
