Mixed ligand Cu( ii ) complexes as new precursors for the synthesis of CuO nanomaterials: development of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts for styrene epoxidation and phenol hydroxylation under mild conditions
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: in aqueous medium. They could be easily recovered and recycled for at least three consecutive cycles without significant lowering of their selectivity or activity profile. The precursor mixed ligand complexes 1 and 2, on the other hand, served as homogeneous catalysts in the epoxidation of styrene under similar solvent-free reaction conditions with 98.5/97.3% conversion and around 99% selectivity, as well as in the phenol hydroxylation in aqueous medium with 63.2/69.3% conversion.
