TL;DR: In this paper, a comparative study concerning the use of Ti-containing molecular sieves with MFI (TS-1), BEA (Ti-beta) and MCM-41 (TiMCM--41) topologies for the styrene oxidation in liquid phase by hydrogen peroxide was performed.
Abstract: A comparative study concerning the use of Ti-containing molecular sieves with MFI (TS-1), BEA (Ti-beta) and MCM-41 (TiMCM-41) topologies for the styrene oxidation in liquid phase by hydrogen peroxide was performed. The major reactions were epoxidation of styrene, the isomerization of styrene oxide into phenylacetaldehyde (PhAA) as well as its oxidative cleavage into benzaldehyde (BzA) and formaldehyde. A high selectivity to PhAA was observed over TS-1, whereas the BzA formation is predominant on Ti-beta and TiMCM-41. Also, the influence of the reaction time and the nature of solvent on the styrene conversion, the selectivity of hydrogen peroxide consumption and on the product distribution were studied.

TL;DR: The catalytic activity of ZIF-8 in the synthesis of styrene carbonate from carbon dioxide and styrene oxide was investigated in this paper, showing that the acid sites and nitrogen basic moieties from the imidazole linker promoted the adsorption of the CO 2 on the solid surface and its further conversion to the cyclic carbonate.

TL;DR: In this paper, a cycloaddition of CO2 with propylene oxide (PO) to propylene carbonate (PC) catalyzed by potassium halide (KCl, KBr, and KI) in the presence of β-cyclodextrin was studied at various conditions.

TL;DR: In this paper, a liquid phase catalytic epoxidation of styrene to styrene epoxide was carried out at 373 K using molecular oxygen at atmospheric pressure, in the presence of Co(II)-exchanged zeolite X.

TL;DR: The results are rationalized by H2O2-dependent formation of a protein radical that combines with molecular oxygen to give a protein-peroxy radical that oxidizes styrene.
