Tuning the selectivity of MoOx supported catalysts for cyclohexane photo oxidehydrogenation

UV Light Driven Selective Oxidation of Cyclohexane in Gaseous Phase Using Mo-Functionalized Zeolites

“…It could be argued that polymolybdate species occupy the reaction cavities where the total oxidation of cyclohexane occurs. These results are consistent with our previous research studies dealing with MoO x /TiO 2 and MoO x /Al 2 O 3 photocatalysts [27,46,47]. In these papers, it was also extensively reported that the photoexcited octahedral polymolybdate species are able to activate the photo-conversion of adsorbed cyclohexene to form benzene through hydrogen abstraction in liquid phase.…”

Photocatalytic Degradation of Organic Dyes under Visible Light on N-DopedTiO2Photocatalysts

“…In recent years, an enormous interest has been devoted to heterogeneous photocatalysis using oxide semiconductors owing to its potential applications to both environmental applications and organic synthesis [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. Titanium dioxide, TiO 2 , is characterized by chemical stability, no toxicity and cheap production cost, so that it represents one of the most important oxides employed in several fields of photochemistry, for example, in environmental remediation, photoelectrolysis of water and dye-sensitized solar cells [18][19][20][21][22].…”

Preparation, characterization and activity evaluation of Ag2Mo4O13 photocatalyst

“…It is known that MoO 3 is a good photocatalyst and it can combine or react with other materials to produce a new photocatalyst and further enhance the photocatalytic activity, such as Pd-MoO 3 /SiO 2 [22], MoO 3 /TiO 2 [23][24][25], MoO 3 /␥-Al 2 O 3 [26], Na 0.5 Bi 1.5 VMoO 8 [27], Bi 2 Mo 2 O 6 [28][29][30], Bi 2 Mo 3 O 12 [31,32], CaBiVMoO 8 [33], etc. However, the study on Ag 2 Mo 4 O 13 as a photocatalyst has been rarely reported.…”
