Abstract

The organic–inorganic hybrid catalyst [(CH2)5NH2]4SiW12O40 was prepared by matrix acid and piperidine. The matrix acid was synthesized by sodium molybdate and sodium silicate, and the piperidine was organic ligand. The proposed composition and structure of the catalyst were evidenced by XPS, FT-IR, XRD, TG-DTA and elemental analysis. The results indicated that the heteropoly anions still reserved their Keggin structure in the compound. Its catalytic performance was evaluated in the oxidation of benzaldehyde to benzoic acid. Various reaction parameters were changed to attain the optimal conditions. The optimal reaction conditions were found to be: n(catalyst): n(benzaldehyde)=3.1×10-3:1; n(H2O2): n(benzaldehyde)=4.5:1; reaction temperature was 80℃; reaction time was 4h. The yield of benzoic acid achieved above 85%.
