MgO, CaO, BaO and SrO), Gr. IIIa metal oxides (viz. Al(2)O(3), Ga(2)O(3), In(2)O(3) and Tl(2)O(3)), transition metal oxides (viz. TiO(2), Cr(2)O(3), MnO(2), Fe(2)O(3), CoO(x), NiO, CuO, ZnO, Y(2)O(3) and ZrO(2)), rare earth metal oxides (viz. La(2)O(3), Ce(2)O(3), Nd(2)O(3), Sm(2)O(3), Eu(2)O(3), Tb(2)O(3), Er(2)O(3) and Yb(2)O(3)) and U(3)O(8) [all prepared by depositing gold on corresponding metal oxide support by deposition precipitation (DP) and/or homogeneous deposition precipitation (HDP) method] were evaluated for their catalytic performance in the liquid phase epoxidation of styrene by tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) to styrene oxide and also in the solvent-free benzyl alcohol-to-benzaldehyde oxidation (by molecular oxygen or TBHP) reactions. For the epoxidation, the catalytic performance (styrene oxide yield) of the most promising nano-gold catalysts prepared by the HDP method was in the following order: Au/MgO &amp;gt; Au/Tl(2)O(3) &amp;gt; Au/Yb(2)O(3) &amp;gt; Au/Tb(2)O(3) &amp;gt; Au/CaO (or TiO(2)). However, for the oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde by molecular oxygen, the order of choice for the most promising catalysts (based on benzaldehyde yield) was Au/U(3)O(8) &amp;gt; Au/Al(2)O(3) &amp;gt; Au/ZrO(2) &amp;gt; Au/MgO. Whereas, when TBHP was used as an oxidizing agent for the benzyl alcohol oxidation, the order of choice for the most promising catalysts was Au/U(3)O(8) &amp;gt; Au/MgO &amp;gt; Au/TiO(2) &amp;gt; Au/ZrO(2) &amp;gt; Au/Al(2)O(3). The catalytic performance of a particular supported nano-gold catalyst was thus found to depend on the reaction catalysed by them. Moreover, it is strongly influenced by a number of catalyst parameters, such as the metal oxide support, the method of gold depositon on the support, the gold loading and also on the catalyst calcination temperature. Nano-gold particles-support interactions seem to play an important role in controlling the deposition of gold ( amount of gold deposited and size and morphology of gold particles), formation of different surface gold species (Au(0), Au(1+) and Au(3+)) and electronic properties of gold particles and, consequently, control the catalytic performance (both the activity and selectivity) of the supported nano-gold catalysts in the reactions. The nano-gold catalysts prepared by the HDP method showed much better catalytic performance than those prepared by the DP, coprecipitation or impregnation method; in general, the HDP method provided supported gold catalysts with much higher gold loading and/or smaller size gold particles than that achieved by the DP and other methods.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2.359</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%">Choudhary, Vasant R.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dumbre, Deepa K.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Solvent-free selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde by tert-butyl hydroperoxide over U3O8-supported nano-gold catalysts</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Applied Catalysis A-General</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Au/U3O8 catalyst</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Benzaldehyde</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Benzyl alcohol</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nano-gold</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Partial oxidation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">tert-Butyl hydroperoxide</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2010</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%">2</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%">375</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">252-257</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Liquid-phase oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde by tertiary butyl hydroperoxide over different uranium oxide supported nano-gold catalysts in the absence of a solvent has been thoroughly investigated.

The interfacial interactions not only are responsible for stabilizing the necessary oxidation state to facilitate the reaction but also enhance the stability of the catalyst system. Nano dispersion of Ni on mesoporous nitrogen-rich carbon material has been achieved using two different synthesis methods. It was observed that nickel (0) gets stabilized by strong interfacial interaction with the nitrogen atoms of the support material, and the material was found to be very economic and efficient for the conversion of HMF to DMF in aqueous medium. The material shows &amp;gt;= 99% conversion to 5-(hydroxymethyl) furfural (HMF) within 6 h of reaction with 98.7% DMF selectivity. A unique correlation between synthesis methods and particle sizes with catalytic performance has been observed for these newly developed materials. Furthermore, a DFT calculation has been performed to predict the reaction mechanism. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc.
