Abstract

Keggin-type heteropolyoxometalates has been used as catalysts for the oxidation of benzylic alcohols and secondary alcohols to the corresponding carbonyl compounds using environment-friendly H2O2 as oxidant at room temperature. The catalysts used in this study exhibit high selectivity in the oxidation of alcohols with no over-oxidation and formation of carboxylic acids. For vanadium(V)-substituted hepolyoxmetalates [Hx-2PVxW12-xO40]5- (x= 4 for POM 1 and 6 for POM 2), the catalytic activity decreases with increasing number of vanadium atoms in the catalyst.
