Mo acetylide oxo-peroxo species is formed in situ by reaction of 1 with TBHP during the course of reaction as catalytically active species. Interestingly even though the catalytically active species is homogeneous in nature it could be recycled very easily by recovering the catalytically active species as solid after addition of diethyl ether, and separating the products into organic phase. In the case of ethyl benzene oxidation, even after three recycles no appreciable loss in ethyl benzene conversion and acetophenone selectivity was observed. This complex showed high catalytic activity for the oxo functionalization of other alkyl aromatics and alkanes such as substituted ethyl benzenes, toluene as well as cyclohexane. TBHP was found to be more efficient oxidant than hydrogen peroxide for this oxidation. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V.

The catalyst was synthesized by the low temperature hydrothermal (LTH) method using D-glucose and bagasse as the carbon source. The carbonization of bagasse resulted in the formation of nonuniform carbon microspheres while glucose resulted in uniform carbon spheres. SEM and STEM elemental mapping show the uniform distribution of molybdenum oxide NPs over the carbon microspheres. XPS spectroscopy confirmed that molybdenum was in the Mo6+ oxidation state. The 1% MoO3 supported on carbon microspheres derived from D-glucose showed excellent catalytic activity up to 100% olefin conversion with 100% epoxide selectivity using organic tent-butyl hydroperoxide as an oxidant. The catalyst was successfully used for up to five cycles without losing substantial activity and selectivity.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6.140</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
