TY - JOUR TI - Gold Nanoparticle Immobilized Porous Manganese Oxide Microspheres As Heterogeneous Catalyst for Benzyl Alcohol Oxidation AB - A heterogeneous catalyst in the form of Au nanoparticles (Au NPs) immobilized porous manganese oxide (Mn5 O8 ) microspheres was synthesized. Mn5 O8microspheres were obtained by sol-gel templating method. The heterogeneous catalyst (Au@Mn5 O8 ) showed good performance when compared with similar catalysts in the oxidation of benzyl alcohol (BnOH). Au@Mn5 O8microspheres obtained by the decoration of Au NPs on Mn5 O8microspheres performed 99.4% of BnOH conversion and 100 % of benzaldehyde (BnCHO) formation yield. Also the heterogeneous catalyst showed a good stability and agglomeration resistance in the reusability experiments. There was no remarkable loss in the catalytic activity when the catalyst was reused up to 5 times.
