In this work, we have explored the catalytic activity of Keggin-type heteropolyanions PMo12−nVnO40(3+n)− (n = 0, 1, 2, or 3) in the form of sodium salts in green oxidation routes of terpene alcohols with hydrogen peroxide.

In this work, we describe the use of iron (III) silicotungstate as a catalyst for the synthesis of solketal, a fuel bioadditive, from glycerol and acetone. A high yield of solketal was achieved in glycerol acetalization with acetone at room temperature at short reaction time (ca. 1 h). Among the various metal silicotungstates (i.e.
