Summary: This study investigated the correlation between polyoxotungstate structures and their catalytic performance in oxidative desulfurization processes. Results showed that the Lindqvist catalyst achieved faster desulfurization with lesser amount of catalyst and oxidant. The reusability of the Lindqvist-type catalyst was also confirmed for consecutive oxidative desulfurization processes.

Summary: The one-step oxidative cleavage of cyclohexene to adipic acid using H2O2 as oxidizing agent and heteropolysalts as heterogeneous catalysts was successfully achieved without additives. The best catalyst K3PW12O40 calcined at 600 degrees C showed the highest yield of adipic acid (83%). The reaction mechanism involved primary oxidation of cyclohexene and observed undesirable parallel reactions such as rearrangement of 1,2-cyclohexanediol and allyl oxidation.

Summary: The effects of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and H2O2 stabilizer (EDTA) on the thermal hazard of H2O2 decomposition and the green synthesis of adipic acid were investigated in this study. Various calorimetry techniques were used to characterize the exothermic behavior of the reactions. An HPLC device was used to analyze the yield of adipic acid and the conversion rate of the raw materials. The addition of H2SO4 and EDTA reduced the exothermic heat of the reactions and increased the yield of adipic acid.

Summary: In this study, PTA-TiO2 composite catalysts were prepared and characterized. The heat treatment temperature was found to significantly affect the composition and structure of the composite, with higher temperatures leading to destruction of the Keggin structure. A synergistic effect between photo- and thermal catalysis was observed, resulting in improved conversion of cyclohexene and yield of adipic acid.

Summary: Adipic acid is an important commercially available aliphatic dicarboxylic acid, but its production process generates nitrous oxide which is difficult to utilize. This paper proposes an alternative method using a two-stage reaction to reduce N2O production and achieve adipic acid synthesis. The method involves oxidizing cyclohexene to epoxide using hydrogen peroxide in the first stage, followed by oxidation of 1,2-cyclohexanediol with oxygen in the second stage. The use of this method can significantly reduce N2O production compared to industrial methods.

Summary: The study demonstrates that the interaction strength between gamma-CD and oxidized or one-electron reduced POMs decreases as the global ionic charge of the POM unit increases. The addition/removal of one electron to POMs, particularly those with molybdenum and vanadium addenda, allows for tuning the host-guest association strength, offering a new avenue for the design of smart materials through redox stimuli.

Summary: We synthesized and characterized a uranium-containing selenotungstate compound with remarkable photoluminescence properties. The compound was obtained by a one-pot reaction of uranium nitrate, sodium tungstate, and sodium selenite. The introduction of lone-electron pair containing heteroatoms resulted in a unique structure comprising a three-layered heterometallic cluster encapsulated by two different anionic building block units. The compound exhibited strong photoluminescence emission and a high quantum yield.

Summary: The study focuses on the effect of different calcination temperatures on the solubility and acidity of heteropolysalts catalysts, as well as the influence of reaction temperature on the conversion and distribution of products in the oxidation of cyclohexene. The results show that the catalyst synthesis was successful, and the thermal treatments did not affect the structures of the polyanions. The solubility of the catalyst was found to be related to the reaction medium, and the acidity of the catalyst played a crucial role in the formation of the desired product.
