Upon high temperature treatment of Zn-Cr-O the Cr6+ ions underwent autoreduction to form stable Cr3+ species and the particle size of both ZnO and ZnCr2O4 increased dramatically. Thermal effect did not influence the intermolecular cyclisation of EDA to form pyrazine. By contrast, an inversely proportional dependence was found between the rate of formation of 2-methylpyrazine and the particle size of Zn-Cr-O whereas the rate of 2-pyrazinylmethanol was directly proportional to the particle size.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">0.632</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rao, Bolla Govinda</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sudarsanam, Putla</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rao, Tumula Venkateshwar</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Amin, Mohamad Hassan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bhargava, Suresh K.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Reddy, Benjaram M.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Highly dispersed MnOx nanoparticles on shape-controlled SiO2 spheres for ecofriendly selective allylic oxidation of cyclohexene</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Catalysis Letters</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cyclohexene oxidation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MnOx nanoparticles</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shape-controlled catalyst</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SiO2 nanospheres</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Structure-performance relationship</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Synergetic interaction</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2020</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">OCT</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">150</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3023-3035</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Shape-controlled metal nanomaterials are considered as a unique class of catalysts because of their synergistic size- and shape-dependent catalytic properties. This work reports the synthesis of a novel size- and shape-controlled catalyst, consisting of highly dispersed MnOx nanoparticles (average particle size of 4.5 nm) on shape-controlled SiO2 nanospheres (250-300 nm) for selective cyclohexene oxidation using air as the oxidant under solvent- and base-free conditions. The MnOx/SiO2 catalyst exhibited an excellent cyclohexene conversion (92%) with a high selectivity (96%) to the allylic products (2-cyclohexene-ol and 2-cyclohexene-one) under mild conditions, outperforming various SiO2 supported CoOx, FeOx, and CuOx catalysts. The better performance of shape-controlled MnOx/SiO2 nanocatalyst is due to high redox nature of Mn, uniform dispersion of smaller sized MnOx nanoparticles, and synergetic interaction between MnOx and SiO2 spheres, as evidenced by XPS and TEM studies. Further, the MnOx/SiO2 catalyst could be reused at least 5 times for selective cyclohexene oxidation with a negligible loss in its catalytic performance, indicating the excellent stability of shape-controlled metal nanocatalysts in organic synthesis under economically viable and mild conditions.&lt;/p&gt;
