	abstract = {<p>Protected mesoporous SBA-15 phase was synthesized by grafting the complex Chloro (S,S)(-)[N-3-tert-butyl-5-chloromethyl salicylidene]-N{\textquoteright}-[3{\textquoteright},5{\textquoteright}-di tert-butyl salicylidene] 1,1{\textquoteright}-binapthyl-2,2{\textquoteright}-diamine manganese(III) through the reactive 3-aminopropyl trimethoxysilane(3-APTMS) group. The surface properties of the functionalized catalyst were analyzed by a series of characterization techniques like elemental analysis, XRD, N-2 sorption measurement isotherm, FT-IR, XPS, and solid state C-13 NMR. The screening of the catalyst Mn(III)-L-SBA-15 and neat Mn(III)-L complexes was done for the oxidation reaction of thioanisole (methyl phenyl sulfide) using TBHP as an oxidant. Mn(III)-L-SBA-15 catalyst shows higher activities and exhibit enantiomeric excess comparable to homogeneous catalyst. (C) 2012 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.</p>},

	abstract = {<p>High sulfide conversion and predominant sulfoxide yield has been observed with 0.1\% vanadium doped disordered mesoporous Ti1-xVxO2 material at ambient and sub ambient temperatures using environmentally green H2O2 oxidant. Ti1-xVxO2 materials were prepared by one-pot solution combustion method in less than 15 min and thoroughly characterized by X-ray diffraction, HRTEM, Raman spectra and other physicochemical techniques. Different sulfides, such as, phenylsulfide, methyl-p-tolylsulfide, ethylsulfide, thioanisole, were converted into the corresponding sulfoxide. Isolated V5+ incorporated in the TiO2 lattice is likely to be the active species for the sulfide oxidation reaction. Catalyst recycling studies indicates the robustness of the catalyst.
