Abstract

Zirconium doped tunnel structure manganese oxide (OMS-2) materials were synthesized by reflux and impregnation methods by adopting suitable synthetic conditions. XRD and TGA analyses were used to characterize the crystal structure and thermal stability of as synthesized zirconium doped manganese oxide OMS-2 catalysts. FT-IR and BET analyses were used to interpret the stretching frequency of corresponding functional group present in the catalysts and surface area of as synthesized catalysts. Fibrous structure and the aggregated particle morphology of zirconium doped manganese oxide OMS-2 catalysts were confirmed by TEM analyses. The synthesized catalysts were tested for liquid phase oxidation of side chain aromatic compounds such as ethyl benzene and benzyl alcohol, TBHP (tert-butyl hydrogen peroxide) as the chemical oxidant. Liquid phase oxidation ethyl benzene over zirconium doped tunnel structure manganese oxide OMS-2 catalysts show the higher substrate conversion compared to that of benzyl alcohol oxidation on as synthesized zirconium doped manganese oxide OMS-2 catalysts.
