Isomorphous substitution of aluminium by chromium in the aluminophosph
ate-5 framework by hydrothermal synthesis leads to an active, selectiv
e and recyclable catalyst for the liquid phase oxidation of secondary
alcohols, to the corresponding ketones, using molecular oxygen or tert
-butyl hydroperoxide as the terminal oxidant.
