Abstract
SAPO-37 containing structural chromium(III) and iron(III) ions were tested as catalysts in liquid phase oxidation of benzene and cyclohexane, using hy drogen peroxide and tert-butylhydroperoxide as oxidants. Only chromium(III) is active as oxidation catalyst. In spite of the SAPO-37 framework stabili ty under the reaction conditions, leaching of small quantities of chromium occurs and the observed catalytic reaction is mainly due to the chromium io ns in solution.
