The materials were characterized in detail by X-ray diffraction, BET surface area, N-2 sorption isotherms, SEM, TEM, UV-vis and XPS techniques. Powder X-ray diffraction pattern, N2 adsorption-desorption analysis and TEM analysis show the presence of hexagonal mesoporous structure, having Type W isotherms and reveals the typical wormhole-like morphology. Spectroscopic techniques like UV-vis and XPS reveal cobalt in +2 oxidation state and tetrahedrally coordinated. Liquid phase oxidation of ethylbenzene using TBHP (70 wt%) as an oxidant shows that the catalysts are highly active, under solvent free conditions as well as under lower cobalt concentrations. Leaching studies performed by hot filtration experiments show that the cobalt catalysts prepared by hydrothermal methods are stable, while the grafted catalysts show the leaching of cobalt under the reaction conditions.
