Abstract: | The oxidation of cyclohexanol to cyclohexanone with 30% aqueous hydrogen peroxide by using peroxotung-state complexes formed
in situ from sodium tungstate dihydrate and various bidentate organic ligands as the catalysts, without organic solvents, halide
and phase transfer catalyst has been carried out. The influence of 13 ligands on the oxidation is investigated. The maximum
yield of cyclohexanone is obtained when using 1,10-phenanthroline (96%) and oxalic acid (95%) as the ligand. Very high yields
(around 90%) have also been obtained for the instances of using salicylic acid, 3,5-dibromosalicylic acid, and 8-hydroxylquinoline
as ligands. A research to improve the reaction condition using cheap oxalic acid as the ligand indicates that the optimum
condition is that the reaction mixture with a molar ratio of cycohexanol∶tungstate dihydrate∶oxalic acid∶ 30% H2O2=100∶2∶2∶120 was stirred at 85–90°C for 12 h. |
