Abstract:
Ti-MWW molecular sieve catalyst were prepared by hydrothermal synthesis and acid treatment. Epoxidation of allyl alcohol (AAL) by H2O2 over Ti-MWW molecular sieve catalyst was studied using water as solvent. The lower concentration of allyl alcohol helped increase reaction rate and higher concentration of H2O2 decrease selectivity to glycidol. Under suitable conditions; reaction temperature 333 K, reaction time 30 min, Ti-MWW molecular sieve catalyst dosage 50 mg, allyl alcohol 10 mmol,H2O2 10 mmol, and H2O 20 mL, conversion of allyl alcohol and selectivity to glycidol could reach 96% and 98%, respectively. Selectivity to glycidol was the highest when n( AAL) : n(H2O2) = 1, but dropped quickly if reaction temperature increased above 333 K. The reaction mechanism was similar to that of alkene epoxidation on TS-1 molecular sieve catalyst, which involved a transition state of a 5-membered ring formed through a solvent molecule or an allyl alcohol molecule on Ti active site. High selectivity to glycidol was attributed to high structural stability of Ti species and nature of the 5-membered ring.
