Abstract
The catalytic activity of [Fe(terpy)2]2+ complexes supported on the cation exchange resins, ([Fe(terpy)2]2+@resin), was investigated for the oxidation of benzene with H2O2 to yield phenol. The catalytic activity of an [Fe(terpy)2]2+@Nafion catalyst for the oxidation of benzene with H2O2 was observed to be five times more than that in case of the [Fe(terpy)2]2+@resin catalysts. Among the [Fe(terpy)2]2+@resin catalysts that were investigated in this study, the [Fe(terpy)2]2+@Nafion catalyst exhibits the highest durability against H2O2 because the other resins were dissolved or dispersed in the reaction solvent. Nafion was found to be the best candidate among the polymer supports for loading the Fe complex active to perform the oxidation of a substrate with H2O2.

Introduction
Phenol is one of the most valuable organic intermediates with respect to resins, plastics, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals in the chemical industry [1]. Most phenols are industrially produced using a multi-step process. For example, three-step cumene synthesis has been extensively employed as a commercial process to produce phenol [2]. The direct catalytic hydroxylation of benzene to phenol with environment-friendly oxidants, such as H2O2 [[3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9]], N2O [[10], [11], [12], [13]], O2 in combination with reducing agents [3, [14], [15], [16], [17]], and H2O with electrochemical [18] or photochemical reaction systems [19, 20], has drawn considerable attention. Parnov et al. reported that Fe/ZSM-5 catalyst exhibited good performance for oxidation of benzene with N2O to phenol (conversion: 28%, selectivity: 98%) at 350 °C [12]. Iwasawa et al. reported that Re10-cluster/H-ZSM-5 catalyst was active for oxidation of benzene with O2/NH3 to phenol (selectivity: 94%) at 280 °C [14]. Certainly, these results are excellent; however some problems have still remained from a viewpoint of environment, such as the usage of the toxic gases, N2O and NH3, and high reaction temperature. From among these reported processes, the direct hydroxylation of benzene to phenol with H2O2 as an oxidant in the liquid phase has been investigated as an environment-friendly process [[4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9]]. However, for this process, poor selectivity can be an issue because overoxidation of phenol forms various byproducts such as catechol, hydroquinone, benzoquinone, and tars [3]. One of the most attractive fields in catalysis is related to the development of inorganic–organic hybrid materials that are active for oxidation reactions. Several researchers have reported the oxidation of benzene [9, [21], [22], [23], [24], [25]] with H2O2 as an oxidant over the transition metal complexes that are encapsulated in Y-type zeolite. Recently, we reported the catalytic activity of an [Fe(bpy)3]2+@Na-Y catalyst for the oxidation of benzene and cyclohexene with H2O2 in CH3CN and/or H2O solvent [23, 24, 26, 27]. The maximum catalytic activity for the oxidation of benzene with H2O2 was achieved when the volume ratio of the solvents (CH3CN and H2O) was 1:1 [23]. Furthermore, an [Fe(bpy)3]2+@TMA-Y catalyst, which was partially cation-exchanged zeolite with TMA+ ([N(CH3)4]+) ions, exhibited higher catalytic activity for the oxidation of benzene with H2O2 in CH3CN than that exhibited for the [Fe(bpy)3]2+@Na-Y catalyst [24]. This indicated that the hydrophobic field around the active center that was formed by the exchange of TMA+ ions positively influenced the oxidation of benzene to phenol with H2O2.
Considering the aforementioned results, we focused on using the cation exchange resin as a support material because it is expected to provide a hydrophobic field around the active center of oxidation as compared to the inorganic materials such as zeolite and clay. In this study, the [Fe(terpy)2]2+ complexes that were supported on the cation exchange resins, ([Fe(terpy)2]2+@resin), were prepared, and their catalytic activities for the oxidation of benzene with H2O2 were investigated.

Regardless of the catalyst type, the selectivity to phenol was nearly 100%.

Removal of multi-pollutants in flue gas via a new approach based on dielectric barrier discharge coupling MnCu/Ti oxidation
2022, Applied Catalysis A: General
Citation Excerpt :
Since Ru and Rh are precious metals, the corresponding catalysts are expensive and uneconomical. Among the remaining 7 transition element oxides, Ce oxides have good oxygen storage capacity, Fe oxides are often used to catalyze the degradation of organic matter, and Co oxides are often used as CO oxidation catalysts [32–37]. Both the density functional calculation and the experimental results showed that, compared with other metal oxides, Cu oxide has a stronger ability to oxidize Hg0 [25,30,38].
A dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) coupling MnCu/Ti oxidation and postpositioned wet electrostatic precipitator (WESP) system was built. The experimental results showed that WESP can significantly enhance the simultaneous conversion efficiency(ηC) of NO, SO2 and Hg0 by the DBD coupling MnCu/Ti reactor. The best simultaneous removal efficiency(ηR) of NO, SO2 and Hg0 reached 94.5%, 100% and 100%, respectively. The ratio of catalyst active component (Mn/Cu) and catalyst filling amount were optimized. The effects of catalyst active component ratio, filling amount, flue gas component and energy density (SED) on the ηC of NO, SO2 and Hg0 were determined. The effect of sodium humate (HA-Na) in the cleaning water on the ηR was also illustrated. Besides, we clarified the absorption mechanism and how WESP corona discharge oxidized NO, SO2 and Hg0, as well as the removal of NO2, SO2, and SO3 by HA-Na. Product analysis showed that NO2, SO2 and SO3 were converted into NO3- and SO42-, part of HgO was converted into Hg2+ in the cleaning water, and a small amount of Hg(NO3)2 and HgSO4 were converted into Hg2+, NO3- and SO42-.

A hierarchical zeolite-Y hampered metallo-ligand complexes for selective oxidation: A mechanistic point of view
Microporous and Mesoporous Materials, Volume 235, 2016, pp. 233-245
A series of Ni2+ and Mn2+ complexes with ligands 1 and 2 derived from the condensation of 1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)ethan-1-one and/or 1-(5-chloro-2-hydroxyphenyl)ethan-1-one with ethane-1,2-diamine have been synthesized as neat and zeolite Y enslaved complexes. The structures of these complexes were established on the basis of various physicochemical (XRD, ICP-AES, elemental analysis, BET, SEM, magnetic measurements, and TGA) and spectroscopic studies (UV–vis and FTIR). The catalytic performance of these hybrid materials was scrutinized for the oxidation of cyclohexene, phenol, styrene, and benzene using 30% H2O2 as an oxidant. Among all catalysts, 3Y ably catalyzed the cyclohexene (100%), phenol (39.2%), styrene (99.3%), and benzene (20.7%) with the higher selectivity of Cyclohex-2-en-1-one (55.6%), catechol (73.2%), benzaldehyde (87.5%), and phenol (80.7%), respectively. It has been revealed that the presence of electron-withdrawing substituents on the aromatic ring of catalyst degrades the catalytic activity and the selectivity of products. The results show that the heterogeneous systems are easily salvaged and reused without substantial fall in the activity and selectivity. Moreover, the involvement of metal hydroperoxide during the catalytic reaction is confirmed by the preparation, characterization, and utilization of metal hydroperoxide of complex 4 as catalyst over phenol oxidation without oxidant.

Alkane oxidation reactivity of homogeneous and heterogeneous metal complex catalysts with mesoporous silica-immobilized (2-pyridylmethyl)amine type ligands
Molecular Catalysis, Volume 443, 2017, pp. 14-24
Attachment of N,N-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)amine (L1) and N-(2-pyridylmethyl)glycine (L2) ligands on the azide-functionalized SBA-15 type mesoporous silica support and subsequent insertion of metal salts into the ligand-immobilized supports yielded heterogeneous metal complex catalysts, M(A)/SBA*-Ln-x, where M, A, *, n, and x indicate the metal ion (MnII, FeII, CoII, NiII, CuII), counter anion (Cl, OAc, OTf), trimethylsilyl end-capped silica, the numbering of the ligands, and the initial content of the azide tether group (tether/Si mol%) respectively. The cyclohexane oxidation activity of these immobilized catalysts and corresponding homogeneous complexes have been evaluated with the use of m-chloroperbenzoic acid as an oxidant. The activity of the immobilized catalysts is influenced by the ligand density on the support. Both the site-isolated immobilized catalysts and the related homogeneous catalysts of ligand L1 show similar trends of their final TONs on the type of metal ions (Co≈Ni>Fe>Mn>Cu). These results suggest that all of the metal complex sites are successfully immobilized without structural changes under the site-isolated condition. The reactivity trends of the complexes with the L2 ligand and their dependence on the ligand density were complicated. The observed results may be explained by the formation of cluster complexes via bridging carboxylate moieties of the ligand.

Catalysis Today, Volume 242, Part B, 2015, pp. 261-267
Fe-bipyridine complexes encapsulated into Na-Y ([Fe(bpy)3]2+@Y) were prepared and their catalytic activities for oxidation of cyclohexene with hydrogen peroxide in CH3CN and H2O solvents were investigated. The prepared [Fe(bpy)3]2+@Y was characterized by several methods and it was found that slightly distorted or compressed [Fe(bpy)3]2+ ions were formed within supercages of Y-type zeolite. [Fe(bpy)3]2+@Y catalyst exhibited both higher activity and higher selectivity to 2-cyclohexen-1-ol in water solvent than another Fe catalysts. In addition, the selective hydroxylation of cyclohexene to 2-cyclohexen-1-ol with molecular oxygen was successfully achieved for [Fe(bpy)3]2+@Y catalyst.

Direct catalytic hydroxylation of benzene to phenol catalyzed by vanadia supported on exfoliated graphitic carbon nitride
Applied Catalysis A: General, Volume 549, 2018, pp. 31-39
Direct hydroxylation of benzene is a sustainable and promising strategy to synthesize phenol. The key topic for the catalytic process is the development of an efficient heterogeneous catalyst. In this work, graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) material was exfoliated and protonated, and then utilized as a support to load vanadia by using VO(acac)2 as a precursor. The synthesized materials were characterized by several techniques including N2 adsorption–desorption, XRD, TG, TEM, SEM, FT-IR, UV–vis, and XPS. The results exhibited that the exfoliation as a simple method could improve the surface area and pore volume of g-C3N4, while protonation was able to facilitate to increase the loading amount of vanadia. In hydroxylation of benzene to phenol in the presence of H2O2, the vanadia catalysts supported on peg-C3N4 demonstrated superior catalytic activity to the catalysts supported on the pristine g-C3N4. Moreover, the effects of protonation conditions including acid concentration and temperature on the final catalytic activity have also been investigated. Under optimized conditions, a maximum yield of phenol reached 15% at 60°C.

Heterogeneous recyclable copper oxide supported on activated red mud as an efficient and stable catalyst for the one pot hydroxylation of benzene to phenol
Molecular Catalysis, Volume 499, 2021, Article 111310
Phenol is a key intermediate in chemical industry. The present research work reports facile synthesis of a new copper supported activated red mud as a heterogeneous catalyst for oxidative conversion of benzene to phenol. The process is simple and efficient for one pot hydroxylation reaction using H2O2 as an oxidant. The catalyst was characterized using FTIR, XRD, TEM, XPS and BET surface area analyzer. Catalyst reducible properties were studied using H2-TPR technique. The one-pot hydroxylation reaction, carried out at 75 °C under optimum reaction conditions in presence of catalytic material, shows conversion of benzene to phenol with 84.5 % and 87.1 % selectivity and conversion efficiency, respectively. The proposed mechanism emphasizes upon cooperative effect of residual and embedded metal ions in solid catalyst matrix as the contributing factor for efficient conversion and selectivity. The reusable properties of the material, tested up to 5th consecutive cycles of batch operation, indicate retention of selectivity (83.9 %) as well as conversion efficiency (86.7 %), suitable for future commercial development adhering to the principle of green chemistry.

Aerobic one-step oxidation of benzene to phenol on copper exchanged HZSM5 zeolites: A mechanistic study
Journal of Molecular Catalysis A: Chemical, Volume 379, 2013, pp. 139-145
Various Cu/HZSM5-zeolites were prepared and their catalytic properties were investigated by product analysis via GC/MS chromatography in order to trace down the mechanism of the gas phase one-step oxidation of benzene to phenol with molecular oxygen. Comparison of Cu free and Cu containing zeolites showed that the activation of O2 takes place at copper centers of the zeolite and high copper loadings lead to high yields of deep oxidation products (CO, CO2). No phenol was formed in the absence of Brønsted acid sites, i.e. on Cu/KZSM5, revealing the bifunctionality of the Cu/HZSM5 zeolite. The yields of the various oxidation products and thus the selectivity toward phenol can be influenced by variation of the relative O2 concentration in the reaction mixture, indicating the possibility of a stoichiometric use of O2. The role of the superoxide radical ion O2
− as a reactive intermediate is discussed and a radical ionic reaction mechanism is suggested.
