Abstract

Selective transformation of cyclohexane to cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone (mixture called KA oil) under mild reaction constitutes is one of the interesting but challenging reactions in green chemistry. In this work, we report mild reaction catalytic oxidation of cyclohexane over Fe supported SiO2 and γ-Al2O3 nanoparticles as novel catalysts at pH 3, 7 and 11 using ozone. The Fe/γ-Al2O3 catalysts were synthesized using wet impregnation method and characterized with FT-IR, XRD, SEM–EDX, TEM, HRTEM, ICP-OES and BET surface analysis. Cyclohexane was oxidized in an impinger reactor equipped with porous bubbler. The reaction products were identified with gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC–MS) and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The reaction results showed that increasing both the pH of the solution and utilizing catalysts were conducive in inducing percentage conversion without compromising selectivity. Of particular interest, 2.5% Fe/SiO2 exhibited higher catalytic performance than its analogous at pH 3 and 7 after 1 h. The percentage conversions obtained were 29% and 37% for pH 3 and 7 respectively. However, at pH = 11, the 2.5% Fe/SiO2 showed high catalytic performance at pH 11 after 1 h with percentage conversion of 49%. The percentage selectivity obtained was 100% toward KA oil after 30 min and 100% toward cyclohexanone after 1 h of oxidation.
