1-Decene catalysts, cobalt complexes

It was also reported by PruP et al. [31] that in situ formed cobalt(III) complexes of pyridine-4-ylmethyl-propyl-amine (PYPA) on preformed organomodified HMS are active as catalysts in the aerobic oxidation of styrene and also 1-decene (Figure 3). Incorporation of PYPA may be achieved by following several routes viz. sol-gel synthesis, post modification of sol-gel AMP-HMS, and grafting. The authors proposed that all materials are able to act as...
