Ic. Chisem et al., CATALYTIC-OXIDATION OF ALKYL AROMATICS USING A NOVEL SILICA-SUPPORTEDSCHIFF-BASE COMPLEX, Chemical communications, (18), 1998, pp. 1949-1950
A new heterogeneous catalyst based on a chemically modified mesoporous
silica gel and possessing immobilised chromium ions has been prepared
and successfully applied to the aerial oxidation of alkyl aromatics a
t atmospheric pressure and in the absence of solvent.
