Abstract

A copper(II) Schiff base complex has been immobilized onto SBA-15 silica through a stepwise procedure and tested as an oxidation catalyst. BET surface area, total pore volume and average pore width of the SBA-15 all decrease after stepwise modification of SBA-15, while the structure of the support remains intact. The molar ratio of Cu2+/Schiff base is ca. 1/2 in the synthesized material. Catalytic tests showed that the supported copper complex catalyzes the oxidation of benzyl alcohol with 30 % conversion and 89 % selectivity to benzaldehyde when water is used as the solvent.
