“…Titanium silicate (TS-1) was found to be an effective heterogeneous catalyst for the selective oxidation of olefins [2] using dilute hydrogen peroxide as an oxidizing agent under mild conditions, after which titanium silicate (TS-2) [3] and Ti-ZSM-48 [4] followed in effectiveness. Other interesting results have also been obtained with Ti, V, Cr, and Sn containing zeolites or aluminophosphates [5][6][7][8][9]. Pyridines as bifunctional cocatalysts in the chromium oxide-catalyzed oxidation of olefins by tertiary-butyl hydroperoxide have also been reported [10].…”
