TL;DR: In this paper, a porous crystalline synthetic material constituted by silicon and titanium oxides, called titanium silicalite or TS-1, is described. But the use of this material as a catalyst is restricted to a specific application, such as alkylation of toluene with methanol or benzene with ethylene or ethanol.

TL;DR: An improved process for producing alumino-silicates having a porous structure, of the zeolite class, is described in this article, which consists in adding to a homogeneous aqueous mixture at least one substance which contains at least a hydroxyl group in its molecule.
Abstract: An improved process is disclosed for producing alumino-silicates having a porous structure, of the zeolite class, the process essentially comprising the step of preparing a homogeneous aqueous mixture containing a source of alumina, a source of silica and alkali metal bases and/or alkaline earth metal bases, the improvement consisting in adding to said mixture at least one substance which contains at least a hydroxyl group in its molecule. The advantages are that the use of nitrogenous organic substances, universally used heretofore for the preparation of certain zeolites, can be dispensed with inasmuch as the alkali metal ion is capable, alone, of displaying the counter-ion function.

TL;DR: In this article, the state of the art of the scientific knowledge and technical aspects related to propene oxide synthesis in the presence of TS-1 catalyst have been reviewed and compared.
Abstract: Propene oxide is a very important chemical whose production technology has changed a lot during the last 30 years. Nowadays, the most promising technology is the HPPO process in which the propene oxide is produced by oxidizing propene with hydrogen peroxide, via titanium silicalite-1 (TS-1) catalysis. Even if this technology has been patented in the early 1980s and some chemical plants are already in production, only few papers have been published until now dealing with the catalytic and kinetic aspects of the process. In this paper, the state of the art of the scientific knowledge and technical aspects related to propene oxide synthesis in the presence of TS-1 catalyst have been reviewed.

TL;DR: In this article, four different stannosilicates have been investigated: Sn-BEA, Sn-MFI, SnMCM-41 and Sn-SBA-15.
Abstract: The selective conversion of biomass-derived substrates is one of the major challenges facing the chemical industry. Recently, stannosilicates have been employed as highly active and selective Lewis acid catalysts for a number of industrially relevant reactions. In the present work, four different stannosilicates have been investigated: Sn-BEA, Sn-MFI, Sn-MCM-41 and Sn-SBA-15. When comparing the properties of tin sites in the structures, substantial differences are observed. Sn-beta displays the highest Lewis acid strength, as measured by probe molecule studies using infrared spectroscopy, which gives it a significantly higher activity at low temperatures than the other structures investigated. Furthermore, the increased acid strength translates into large differences in selectivity between the catalysts, thus demonstrating the influence of the structure on the active site, and pointing the way forward for tailoring the active site to the desired reaction.

TL;DR: In the presence of only molecular oxygen as oxidant and in absence of reducing agents, a number of liquid-phase and gas-phase catalytic reactions have been reported as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: The direct oxidation of propylene to propylene oxide (PO) using molecular oxygen has many advantages over existing chlorohydrin and hydroperoxide process, which produce side products and require complex purification schemes. Recent advances in liquid-phase and gas-phase catalytic oxidation of propylene in the presence of only molecular oxygen as oxidant and in absence of reducing agents are summarized. Liquid-phase PO processes involving soluble or insoluble Mo, W, or V catalysts have been reported which provide moderate conversions and selectivities, but these likely involve autoxidation by homogeneous chain reactions. Gas-phase PO catalysts have been mostly Ag-, Cu-, or TiO2-based substances, although other compositions such as Au-, MoO3-, Bi-based catalysts and photocatalysts have also been suggested as possibilities. The Ag catalysts differ from those used for ethylene oxide production in having high Ag contents and numerous additives. The additives are solid-phase alkali metals, alkaline earth metals...

TL;DR: In this article, a process and a catalyst for the direct oxidation of an olefin having three or more carbon atoms, such as propylene, by oxygen to the corresponding Olefin Oxide is described.
Abstract: A process and catalyst for the direct oxidation of an olefin having three or more carbon atoms, such as propylene, by oxygen to the corresponding olefin oxide, such as propylene oxide. The process involves contacting the olefin with oxygen under reaction conditions in the presence of hydrogen and in the presence of a catalyst. The catalyst comprises gold on a titanosilicate, preferably a microporous or mesoporous titanosilicate, such as, TS-1, TS-2, Ti-beta, Ti-ZSM-48, or Ti-MCM-41. Selectivity to the olefin oxide is high at good conversions of the olefin. The catalyst is readily regenerated, and the time between catalyst regenerations is long.
