The materials were characterized by PXRD, SEM, TEM, N-2 adsorption-desorption, FT-IR, Si-29 MAS NMR, C-13 CP MAS NMR and TG-DTA techniques. Characterization techniques revealed that the morphology of the hybrid material prepared from pure silsesquioxane precursor resulted in spherical particles while a combination of tetra ethyl orthosilicate and 1,2-bis (triethoxy silyl) ethane (90:10 ratio) resulted in materials having wormlike structures. Hydrothermal stability of the hybrid material was evaluated by refluxing the sample under boiling water for various time periods and was compared with that of a periodic mesoporous silica material, Si-MCM-41. Results showed that the hybrid material is stable up to 100 h in boiling water, with the existence of d(100) peak, while the mesopore structure of Si-MCM-41 get destroyed even after a 12 h reflux time. The improved hydrothermal stability of the hybrid material is related to the more hydrophobic environment induced inside the pore channels, due to the presence of integrating ethane groups in the wall channels.

Powder X-ray diffraction, TEM, N-2 adsorption-desorption, FT-IR, in situ FT-Raman, UV-ViS, XPS, Si-29 MAS NMR and C-13 CP MAS NMR were used to probe the mesoporous structure and the nature of chromium sites in the hybrid catalyst matrix. PXRD, TEM and N-2 adsorption-desorption analysis showed that the original hexagonal structure of the materials is maintained after chromium substitution, while FT-Raman, UV-Vis and XPS analysis showed that chromium atoms exist in a highly dispersed state. The catalytic performance of the chromium-containing hybrid samples was tested in the liquid-phase oxidation of cyclohexane with aqueous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and non-aqueous tert-butylhydroperoxide (TBHP) as oxidants. The hybrid materials exhibited better catalytic activities and were more stable than the conventional Cr-MCM-41 catalyst. The higher catalytic activity of the new chromium-containing molecular sieves is attributed to the improved hydrophobicity of the materials and to the complementary structural features that facilitates the accessibility of cyclohexane to the active framework chromium sites.
