Abstract
Catalysis is probably one of the greatest contributions of chemistry to both economic growth and environmental protection. Herein we report the catalytic behavior of zeolite-Y entrapped Ru(III) and Fe(III) complexes with general formulae [M(VTCH)2·2H2O]+-Y and [M(VFCH)2·2H2O]+-Y [where, VTCH=vanillin thiophene-2-carboxylic hydrazone and VFCH=vanillin furoic-2-carboxylic hydrazone] over the oxidation of cyclohexane forming cyclohexanone and cyclohexanol. The samples were corroborated by various physico-chemical techniques. These zeolite-Y based complexes are stable and recyclable under current reaction conditions. Amongst them, [Ru(VTCH)2⋅2H2O]+-Y showed higher catalytic activity (41.1%) with cyclohexanone (84.6%) selectivity.
