Boehmite nanoparticles, with high surface area and high degree of surface hydroxyl groups, were prepared via hydrothermal-assisted sol-gel processing of aluminium 2-butoxide. The produced powder was covalently functionalized with 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propylamine, and then, in order to support vanadium oxosulfate and molybdenum hexacarbonyl complexes, all the terminal amine groups were changed to Schiff bases by refluxing with salicylaldehyde. These catalysts were applied in the epoxidation of cis-cyclooctene and other olefins with tert-BuOOH in CCl4. The catalytic procedures for both catalysts were optimized for various parameters such as solvent and oxidant. Recycling experiments revealed that these heterogeneous nano-catalysts could be repeatedly applied for the epoxidation of alkenes. Copyright (c) 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
