Among this class, the recent discovery of periodic mesoporous organosilicas (PMOs) represent an exciting new group of organic-inorganic nanocomposites targeted for a broad range of applications ranging from catalysis to microelectronics. Compared to the earlier generation of organic-inorganic hybrid mesoporous samples, obtained by the cocondensation reaction or by the grafting reaction, PMOs represent the right combination of organic and inorganic groups in the frame wall positions. This article reviews the current state of art in organic-inorganic hybrid mesoporous material research with special emphasis over periodic mesoporous organosilica materials having various redox centers (Ti, V, Cr) suitable for oxidation reactions as well as acidic sites (Al, -SO(3)H) for the organic transformation of bulky molecules.</p>10aAcid catalysis10aepoxidation10aMesoporous organosilicas10aOrganic-inorganic hybrid materials1 aShylesh, S.1 aSamuel, Prinson, P.1 aSisodiya, Sheetal1 aSingh, A., P.  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/periodic-mesoporous-silicas-and-organosilicas-overview-towards-catalysis-002484nas a2200241   4500008004100000022001400041245008300055210006900138260000800207300001400215490000700229520167000236653001901906653002501925653002301950653003401973653002502007653003302032100002202065700001102087700003002098856011402128       2020                        eng d  a2155-543500aTiO2-based water-tolerant acid catalysis for biomass-based fuels and chemicals0 aTiO2based watertolerant acid catalysis for biomassbased fuels an  cAUG  a9555-95840 v103 a<p>Solid acid catalysts alone or in combination with redox metals play a pivotal role in biomass valorization to obtain alternative fuels and chemicals. In acid-catalyzed biomass conversions, water is a key reagent/byproduct that can induce leaching/poisoning of catalyst's acid species, a major problem toward catalyst recyclability and product purification. Thus, developing efficient water-tolerant solid acid catalysts is vital for viable biomass valorization. TiO2 is considered to be a promising water-tolerant solid acid catalyst for biomass conversions because of the presence of coordinatively unsaturated Ti4+ sites, which are robust and less prone to leaching in the aqueous medium. Besides, the synergistic combination of TiO2 with redox metals (Ru, Pd, Ni, Cu, etc.) provides abundant bifunctional acid-redox sites, which exhibit a favorable catalytic role in the deoxygenation of biomass molecules to practically useful hydrocarbons. Therefore, this review provides an overview of recent progress toward TiO2-based water-tolerant acid catalysis for biomass conversion, with a focus on hydrothermal stability of TiO2, its acidity, and catalysts' synthesis methods. Various biomass conversions over TiO2-based catalysts, where water-tolerant acid sites or acid-redox dual sites show a significant catalytic effect, were discussed. Structure-activity relationships based on water-tolerant Lewis acidity of TiO2 were emphasized. We believe that this review will provide valuable information for developing efficient water-tolerant solid acid catalysts not only for biomass valorization but also for other challenging reactions in the aqueous medium.</p>
