Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOF) containing tin and copper metal salts were used as catalysts in the Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of cyclohexanone. The outcome was a synergistic effect on the catalyst's efficiency, which resulted from the simultaneous presence of copper and tin species in the MOF. The catalyst with high metal content showed the intermolecular dehydration of benzoic acid and the formation of benzoic anhydride in a side reaction as well as the Baeyer-Villiger oxidation reaction with a decline in efficiency. The optimized catalyst promoted the Baeyer-Villiger reaction in a high yield without the formation of benzoic anhydride.
