[α‐PW₁₂O₄₀]³⁻ Immobilized on Ionic Liquid–Modified Polymer as a Heterogeneous Catalyst for Alcohol Oxidation with Hydrogen Peroxide

Abstract

Ionic liquid–modified polystyrene resin beads were demonstrated to be an appropriate support for polyoxometalate. In this heterogeneous catalytic system, alcohols can be efficiently oxidized to corresponding carbonyl groups with H₂O₂ in CH₃CN. The catalyst can be easily recovered by filtration and recycled without apparent loss of catalytic performance.
