One-pot synthesis of mesoporous silica hollow spheres with Mn-N-C integrated into the framework for ethylbenzene oxidation

Chem Commun (Camb). 2016 Apr 25;52(32):5577-80. doi: 10.1039/c6cc00907g.

Abstract

Mesoporous silica spheres with Mn-N-C materials integrated into the framework are synthesized via the surfactant (CTAB) template-assisted one-pot approach. A manganese porphyrin is used as the precursor of the Mn-N-C structure. The as-prepared catalyst exhibits remarkable activity and stability in heterogeneous catalytic systems for ethylbenzene oxidation.
