Abstract

This review article aims to cover the state-of-the-art of titanosilicate catalysts for selective oxidations developed within past seven years. Many elaborated materials (e.g., layered and pillared titanosilicates, hierarchical composite materials, and others) have been prepared and thoroughly characterized; however, their catalytic properties have been usually investigated only using a single or few model substrates and compared with a benchmarking material. The main goal of this article is to summarize the novel catalysts and compare their catalytic performance with each other. The comparison is focused on epoxidation. In addition, phenol hydroxylation and sulphide oxidation are briefly covered.
