Description:
Calcined vanadium phosphorus oxide (VPO) prepared by an organic route is found to be an efficient catalyst for the oxidation of various alkanes such as cyclopentane, cyclohexane, n-hexane, cycloheptane, cyclooctane, cyclodecane and adamantane in acetonitrile solvent using the environmentally benign oxidant, hydrogen peroxide, where the oxidation mechanism is believed to involve a reversible V4+/V5+ redox cycle.
