Catalysts with different TPA loadings (10-25 wt.%) and calcination temperatures (650-750 degrees C) were prepared by suspending titanium hydroxide in methanol solution of TPA followed by drying and calcination. These catalysts were characterized by surface area, XRD, P-31 MAS NMR, XPS, NH3-TPD, and FTIR pyridine adsorption. XRD results indicated that the presence of TPA retarded the crystallization of titania and stabilized TiO2 in anatase phase. P-31 MAS NMR indicated the presence of TPA in various forms (dispersed, highly fragmented and Keggin intact). These catalysts showed both Bronsted and Lewis acidity, and 20% TPA on TiO2 calcined at 700 degrees C (from here after words 20% TT 700) had the highest Bronsted as well as total acidity. Further, the catalytic activities were examined in tert-butylation of p-cresol with tent-butanol. The catalytic activity depended on TPA coverage, and the highest activity corresponded to the monolayer of TPA on titania. The most active catalyst 20% TT-700 gave 82% conversion of p-cresol and 89.5% selectivity towards 2-tert-butyl cresol (TBC), 2,6-di-tert-butyl cresol (DTBC) 7.5% and cresol-tert-butyl ether (CTBE) 3% under optimized conditions. The activity was always higher than that of WO3/ZrO2, sulfated zirconia (SZ), USY, H-beta zeolites and montmorillonite K-10 (K-10mont) under similar conditions. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V.

By,in appropriate choice of solvent, the catalyst call be reused at least three times without much loss in the activity for subsequent runs. XRD shows that the heteropoly acid is uniformly dispersed over the support and up to 15 wt% loading of the heteropoly acid, no additional peak of the same call be seen in the XRD pattern of the catalyst. The reactivity varied with the nature of alkene but the major product was always the corresponding epoxide. The catalytic system is free of high temperature calcination steps and tedious multi-step procedures, normally encountered in the heter-ogenization of heteropoly acids. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V.
