The oxidative cleavage of alkenes was performed using ruthenium triazole -arene complexes immobilized on mesoporous silica materials. These silica-organometallic hybrid materials were found to show enhanced activity when compared to conventional homogeneous systems even when operating at a relatively low catalyst loading. The enhanced catalytic performance of these heterogeneous systems can be attributed to the mesoporous silica acting as a phase transfer agent in the biphasic catalyst system.
