Item type:Publication, Activity enhancement by acetic acid in cyclohexane oxidation using Ti-containing zeolite catalyst(2002-07-10); Limtrakul, JumrasTitanium silicalite (TS-1) was hydrothermally crystallised from a titanosilicate gel. The solid material was characterised by XRD, IR, and SEM, and then used as a catalyst in the liquid phase oxidation of cyclohexane with hydrogen peroxide. The reaction was carried out for 6 h, at the temperature between 40 and 80 °C. It was found that a marked increase in the catalytic activity was observed in the reaction using acetic acid as the solvent, as compared to those using no solvent and methyl ethyl ketone. Further investigation was made on the cause of activity enhancement, and it was shown that acetic acid was readily oxidised to peracetic acid. This compound was believed to facilitate the complexation of the framework titanium active sites, and subsequently serve as a better oxidising agent, as compared to the original hydrogen peroxide. However, leaching of the titanium species was also observed in small amounts, from the reaction using acetic acid as the solvent. In the mechanistic point of view, there was an evidence suggesting that cyclohexanol might be a primary product from the cyclohexane oxidation, and can be consecutively re-oxidised to form cyclohexanone. It is noted that the direct oxidation from cyclohexane to cyclohexanone cannot be excluded. © 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
