- Abstract
A heterogeneous catalyst was synthesized by immobilizing Mo(CO)3 in a UiO-66 metal-organic framework. The benzene ring of the organic linker in UiO-66 was modified via liquid-phase deposition of molybdenum hexacarbonyl, Mo(CO)6, as starting precursor to form the (arene)Mo(CO)3 species inside the framework. The structure of this catalyst was characterized using X-ray diffraction, and chemical integrity was confirmed using Fourier transform infrared and diffuse reflectance UV-visible spectroscopic methods. The metal content was analysed with inductively coupled plasma. Field emission scanning electron microscopy was used to measure particle size and N2 adsorption measurements to characterize the specific surface area. This catalytic system was efficiently applied for epoxidation of alkenes and oxidation of sulfides. The Mo-containing metal-organic framework was reused several times without any appreciable loss of its efficiency.
