“…6C). In our recent work, 101 in the presence of the pure H 2 O solvent, the introduction of alkali metal ions (e.g., K + ) weakens the hydrogen bonding between H 2 O molecules due to their strong polarization effect, and this greatly improves the catalytic activity for the epoxidation of alkenes in the H 2 O solvent, even exceeding that in the 'so-called' best solvent MeCN. Therefore, for the H 2 O solvent, we propose a highly efficient alkene epoxidation catalysis system (e.g., Ti-MWW/H 2 O/H 2 O 2 /propylene/K + ), which possesses high activity, selectivity, and performance stability.…”
