H2O2 to yield corresponding carbonyls. Most importantly the reactions are carried out in the absence of any organic solvents especially halogenated solvents. In case of allylic alcohols, the catalyst is highly selective for the alcohol oxidation reaction and least selective for epoxidation reaction in the presence of aq. H2O2. IR studies support the formation of W-peroxo intermediate species and also support the stability of the catalyst in the presence of phase transfer compound under the present experimental condition. The catalyst can be reused after careful decomposition of peroxide of the final reaction mixture. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V.

The elemental analysis showed that the final composition of the catalysts is pH dependant. The performance of the catalysts was tested for selective oxidation of ethane to give ethylene and acetic acid. While all of them were active for ethane oxidation with a moderate conversion, the catalyst prepared at pH 2 showed a highest activity with 23% ethane conversion and a combined selectivity of 80.6% to ethylene and acetic acid. The catalyst prepared at pH 4 was least selective to ethylene and acetic acid. Various techniques like powder XRD, SEM, Raman, UV-Vis and EPR were used to characterize the catalysts and to identify the active phases responsible for the selective oxidation of ethane. The powder XRD data showed that the catalysts prepared at pH 1 and 2 contain mainly of MoO3 and MoV2O8 along with traces of Mo4O11. The amount of MoO3 was slightly higher in the catalyst prepared at pH 1. However, the catalyst prepared at pH 3 contains mainly of MoV2O8 with no trace of MoO3. The catalyst prepared at pH 4 showed V2O5 as the major phase along with MoVAlO4 phase. The Raman data corroborated the XRD results. EPR and UV-Vis studies indicated the presence of traces of V-4 in pH 1 and 2 catalysts and significant amount of Mo5+ in all the catalysts. Thus, the high activity and selectivity to ethylene and acetic acid are attributed to the presence of MoV2O8 phase and other reduced species like Mo4O11 phase supported on MoO3. The presence of V and Mo ions in a partially reduced form seems to play a crucial role in the selective oxidation of ethane.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1-2</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1.907</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
