Abstract

Abstract Uniform core–shell-structured γ-Fe2O3–mesoporous silica spheres (F-MSS) catalyst was prepared by hydrolyzing TEOS in the presence of CTAB. The structure, shape, formation mechanism, and catalytic performance of F-MSS catalyst were investigated. The results showed that F-MSS catalyst had high BET surface area, excellent catalytic activity and selectivity for oxidizing benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde. The F-MSS catalyst can be reused three times at least and has potential application in industry in the place of noble metal.
