The prepared catalysts were thoroughly characterized by various physico-chemical methods. TEM images showed uniform dispersion of MoO3 nanoparticles (1.5-4 nm) onto silica (similar to 275 nm). No separate MoO3 particles were identified from TEM for MoO3/TiO2 (similar to 10.5 nm) and MoO3/ZrO2 (similar to 6.5 nm) because AHM reacted with titanium and zirconium hydroxides to form solid solution. Among the prepared catalysts MoO3/SiO2 showed excellent catalytic activity (up to 90% conversion and 100% epoxide selectivity) for olefin epoxidation. The catalyst was successfully recycled up to five cycles without losing much activity and selectivity.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">44</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7.443</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%">Chandra, Prakash</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Doke, Dhananjay S.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shubhangi B.

The obtained material was etched with a mild aqueous potassium hydroxide solution for different periods of time to break their Si-O-Si bonds and increases the density of hydroxyl groups on their surfaces. The resulting materials were then used as transition metal-free catalysts for oxidation of olefins in the presence of hydrogen peroxide as a green oxidant. The materials were thoroughly characterized using various physicochemical techniques. These highly populated hydroxyl groups on the surface of silica microspheres were proven to be responsible for excellent conversion (up to 93%) and epoxide selectivity (up to 100%) for various olefins. Quantum mechanical calculations also corroborate the experimental findings. Furthermore, both experimental and theoretical studies show that tertiary silanols were present at the active sites of the catalyst surface and were responsible for olefin epoxidation.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">27</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3.289</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%">Chandra, Prakash</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shinde, Sandip S.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biradar, Ankush V.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tailor made ionic liquids: catalyst and media for organic transformations</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Current Organic Chemistry</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Green solvent</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">heterogeneous catalyst</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">organic transformation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">sustainable process</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">task-specific ionic liquids</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2015</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">FEB</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">BENTHAM SCIENCE PUBL LTD</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">EXECUTIVE STE Y-2, PO BOX 7917, SAIF ZONE, 1200 BR SHARJAH, U ARAB EMIRATES</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">19</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">728-742</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Ionic liquids are considered as one of the safe, green and environmentally benign solvents/catalysts for many organic reactions. Particularly, imidazolium based ionic liquids attracted much attention in basic as well as applied research. The major role of these ionic liquids is the replacement of the existing corrosive solvents, which are largely used in most of the organic processes and make these processes more eco-friendly. Recent report reveals the importance of imidazolium based ionic liquids, supported on silica gel or polystyrene in catalysis. The solid supports have well versed properties such as easy anchoring of ionic liquid, chemically and mechanically very stable and inert in nature. These ionic liquids can be tailored either by covalent attachment or simple deposition of the ionic liquid on the surface of the support. Both approaches showed enhanced reactivity and selectivity for various reactions. In this review, we made an attempt to review the recent reports related to synthesis and applications of tailor made ionic liquids and their use as catalyst in Aldol, Friedel-Crafts alkylation, hydroformylation, nucleophilic substitution and biomass transformation reactions.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1.949</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%">Biradar, Ankush V.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Patil, Vijayshinha S.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chandra, Prakash</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Doke, Dhananjay S.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Asefa, Tewodros</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Trifunctional mesoporous silica-based, highly active catalyst for one-pot, three-step cascade reactions</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chemical Communications</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2015</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APR</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">40</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">THOMAS GRAHAM HOUSE, SCIENCE PARK, MILTON RD, CAMBRIDGE CB4 0WF, CAMBS, ENGLAND</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">51</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8496-8499</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;We report the synthesis of a trifunctional catalyst containing amine, sulphonic acid and Pd nanoparticle catalytic groups anchored on the pore walls of SBA-15.

As-prepared materials were calcined at various temperatures to generate different nature (Bronsted and Lewis), amount and strength of acidic sites. The physico-chemical properties of the catalysts were studied by XRD, N-2 sorption, pyridine-FTIR, NH3-TPD, DRS UV-vis, TGA, SEM, TEM, H-1 MAS and Sn-119 MAS NMR analyses. The catalytic behavior of mesoporous tin oxide catalysts was evaluated for acetalization and ketalization of glycerol with benzaldehyde and acetone respectively under solvent free conditions. The catalytic performance of mesoporous tin oxide was compared with that of other conventional solid acid catalysts namely H-ZSM-5, H-mordenite, H-beta, Al-MCM-41, Al-SBA-15 and Al-TUD-1. The efficiency of mesoporous tin oxide was also tested for cyclohexene epoxidation reaction. The catalyst prepared by template assisted method showed excellent catalytic performance compared to other catalysts due the difference in nature and amount of acidic sites in the catalyst. Meso-SnO2-T-350 was stable and reusable catalyst for four cycles without any appreciable loss in activity, and therefore it offers a good catalyst for potentially wide applications.</style></abstract><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%">4.636</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
