of SBA-15/TiO(2) nanocomposites with different loadings of Keggin-type 12-tungsto-phosphoric acid (TPA) nanocrystals in their mesochannels through a simple and effective vacuum impregnation method is reported for the first time. The catalysts have been characterised by various sophisticated techniques, including XRD, HRSEM, and TEM. It has been found that the acidity and the textural parameters of the nanocomposites can be controlled by simply changing the loadings of TPA and TiO(2) or the calcination temperature. TPA and TiO(2) loadings of 15 and 22.4 wt %, respectively, and a calcination temperature of 1123 K have proved to be optimal for obtaining mesoporous nanocomposite materials with the highest acidity. Moreover, the activities of these catalysts in promoting hydroamination as well as Mannich and Claisen rearrangement reactions have been extensively investigated. The results show that the amount of TPA has a great influence on the activity of the nanocomposites in all of the reactions studied. The effects of other reaction parameters, such as temperature and reaction time, on the conversion and product selectivity have also been studied in detail. A kinetic analysis of the formation of the products under various reaction conditions is presented. It has been found that the activity of the nanocomposite composed of 15 wt % TPA deposited on 22.4 wt of TiO(2) on SBA-15 in promoting the studied reaction is remarkably higher than the catalytic activities shown by pure TPA, TiO(2)-loaded SBA-15, or TPA-loaded SBA-15. The results obtained have indicated that the acidity and the structural control of the nanocomposite materials are highly critical for obtaining excellent catalytic activity, and the presented highly acidic nanocomposites are considered to show great potential for use as catalysts in promoting many acid-catalysed organic transformations.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10</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%">5.771</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%">Justus, Josena</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vinu, Ajayan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Devassy, Biju M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Balasubramanian, Veerappan V.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bohringer, Walter</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fletcher, Jack C.

The structural integrity of the catalyst system was diagnosed with the help of various characterization techniques Such as X-ray diffraction, Surface analysis, and the acidity measurement has been done by TPD using ammonia as probe molecule. AISBA-15 (Si/Al = 10) exhibited highest catalytic activity in the synthesis of MPC under the reaction Conditions Studied. The effect of parameters Such as molar ratio of reactants, catalyst concentration. reaction temperature and time on the conversion of aniline was investigated. The results demonstrated that an aniline conversion of 99% and MPC selectivity of 71% were achieved when the reaction was carried out at 100 C, DMC to aniline mole ratio of 10 with 5% of catalyst (wt% of total reaction mixture) for 3 h.

The obtained materials have been unambiguously characterized in detail by several sophisticated techniques such as XRD, N, adsorption, HRTEM, HRSEM, EDS, elemental mapping, Al-27 MAS NMR, and NH3-TPD. We also demonstrate that the nature, and the amount of Al incorporation in the silica framework can easily be controlled by simply varying the n(H2O)/n(HCl) and the n(Si)/n(Al), ratios, and the Al sources in the synthesis gel. Among the Al sources examined, the Al isopropoxide (AiPr) is superior over other Al sources. Al-27 MAS NMR results reveal that the amount of tetrahedral Al in the framework can be controlled by simply adjusting the nSi/nAl ratio in the synthesis gel, which increases with increasing the Al incorporation. One of the interesting findings in the work is the increase of the specific surface area, specific pore volume and the pore diameter of AIKIT-5 with increasing the Al incorporation in the silica framework (up to n(Si)/n(Al), ratio of 10) while retaining the well-ordered three dimensional cage type porous structure, and the mechanism for the unusual behavior has been discussed in detail. Finally, the acidity and the catalytic activity in the acetylation of veratrole of the AIKIT-5 catalysts have been studied and the results have been compared with the several zeolites catalysts. Among the catalysts examined, AIKIT-5(10) is found to be superior over the zeolites catalysts such as mordenite, zeolite H-Y, zeolite H-beta, and ZSM-5.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8.486</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%">Sunita, G.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Devassy, Biju M.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vinu, Ajayan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sawant, Dhanashri P.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Balasubramanian, Veerappan V.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Halligudi, Shivappa B.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Synthesis of biodiesel over zirconia-supported isopoly and heteropoly tungstate catalysts</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Catalysis Communications</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biodiesel</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">phosphotungstic acids</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Silicotungstic acid</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">transesterification</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">tungsten oxide</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zirconia</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2008</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MAR</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PO BOX 211, 1000 AE AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">696-702</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;The liquid-phase synthesis of biodiesel by transesterification of sunflower oil with methanol is carried out by using zirconia-supported isopoly and heteropoly tungstates (HPAs) as catalysts. The isopoly and heteropoly tungstate catalysts were prepared by suspending zirconium oxyhydroxide in water/methanol solution of ammonium metatungstate/silicotungstic acid, phosphotungstic acid (WO3/HPA loading, 15%,,) followed by drying and calcination at 750 degrees C. The catalysts were characterized by XRD, Raman spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy, NH3-TPD and FTIR pyridine adsorption spectroscopy. XRD results indicate that the presence of isopoly and heteropoly tungstates stabilizes ZrO2 in tetragonal phase. Raman and IR spectra of the catalysts show that tungstate species exist as zirconia-anchored octahedral mono-oxotungstate. The acidity measurements by NH3-TPD and FTIR pyridine adsorption spectroscopy show that zirconia-supported phosphotungstate has the highest total acidity and zirconia-supported isopoly tungstate has the highest Bronsted acidity. The zirconia-supported isopoly tungstate shows superior catalytic performance compared to zirconia-supported heteropoly tungstate catalysts. Under the reaction conditions of 200 degrees C and methanol/oil molar ratio 15, 15% WO3/ZrO2 calcined at 750 degrees C gave 97% conversion of oil. This catalyst also efficiently catalyzes methanolysis of other vegetable oils like mustard oil and sesame oil. The deactivated catalyst could be regenerated by calcination without appreciable loss in activity. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V.

Inspite of their high acid amounts zeolites gave poor catalytic performance due to their diffusional constraints; on the other hand mesoporous materials lacked diffusional constraints but due to their low acid amounts resulted in poor conversions. lsopoly and heteropoly ions supported on zirconia and titania were found to be catalytically active for the reaction due to total surface acidity. Among them, isopolytungstate supported on zirconia exhibited the best catalytic activity and was used for further optimization of reaction conditions.

The catalysts were prepared by wet impregnation of TPA/TiO2 nanoparticles into the SBA-15 and calcined at different temperatures. The characterization results reveal that the textural properties and the acidity of the prepared catalysts can be finely controlled with the simple adjustment of the calcination temperature and the structure of the support, decorated with the TiO2 and TPA nanoparticles, was intact even after the modification. The prepared catalysts were investigated for HA of ethyl acrylate with different aromatic and aliphatic amines over a wide range of reaction conditions to optimize the yield and the selectivity of product. It was found that this process is 100% atom efficient and the catalytic performance depended significantly on the loading of TPA over the catalyst and the calcination temperature. Under optimized reaction conditions, the best catalyst, 15 wt% TPA/22.4 wt% TiO2/SBA-15 calcined at 1123 K, offered the highest conversion of p-ethylaniline (70%) with 100% chemo-selectivity to the anti-Markovnikov product, i.e., the mono-addition product. The reaction was heterogeneously catalyzed and no contribution from leached TPA into the reaction was observed.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12</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%">&lt;p&gt;4.72&lt;/p&gt;</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%">Ranjan, Pranay</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sahu, Tumesh Kumar</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bhushan, Rebti</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Yamijala, Sharma S.

The surface area and the acidity of these materials are tuned with a simple adjustment of PTA in the silica framework. The prepared samples exhibit mesoporous structure with a high surface area, but the structure is collapsed when the loading of PTA is high. It is established that the Keggin structure of PTA is retained on the final mPTA-Si. mPTA-Si with different loadings of PTA are employed as the catalysts for the cyclohexylation of phenol under liquid phase conditions. Among the catalysts studied, 10.0-mPTA-8.3Si calcined at 350 degrees C is found to be highly active, selective, and recyclable and offers 100% conversion of phenol with the highest selectivity for p-cyclohexylphenol (96.8%).&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><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%">4.126</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
