Two novel molybdenum-based heterogeneous catalysts immobilized on dendrimer-functionalized graphene oxide via electrostatic interactions (Mo-1) or covalent bonding (Mo-2) have been reported in this study. These catalysts exhibit excellent catalysis in the epoxidation of alkenes with high conversion, better selectivity, and good recyclability. The differences between the two catalysts are supported by DFT calculations and were characterized using SEM, TEM (EDS-mapping), FT-IR, XRD, and XPS.
