Abstract

AbstractPreparation of hydroxylamine via hydrolysis of cyclohexanone oxime was studied over porous SiO2 supported acid ionic liquid catalyst. The catalyst [SPIPTES]CF3SO3@SiO2 was prepared through sol‐gel method and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and TG, etc. Various parameters such as reaction temperature and time, catalyst amount were investigated systematically. The optimized reaction conditions investigated were catalyst:cyclohexanone oxime (mass ratio) 4 : 1, conducted at 60 °C for 1 h. Since the present hydrolysis reaction is controlled by thermodynamics, the conversion of cyclohexanone oxime could not be very high. However, reasonable result was achieved under the optimized reaction conditions. Cyclohexanone oxime conversion was 38.41 % and NH2OH yield was 37.65 %. Additionally, combining experiments with density functional theory calculations, a possible catalyst structure and reaction pathway involved protonated cyclohexanone oxime mechanism was proposed for the present hydrolysis in this study.
