Abstract

A series of metal acetylacetonates covalently anchored onto amine functionalized silica were prepared by the complexation of metal acetylacetonates [Co (acac) 2, Cu (acac) 2, Pd (acac) 2, Ru (acac) 3, Mn (acac) 3, Co (acac) 3] with organically modified 3-aminopropyl silica and their catalytic activities were tested for the oxidation of aromatic aldehydes, α, β- unsaturated aldehydes and benzyl alcohols to the corresponding carboxylic acids in ...
