Article Description

The acid properties and catalytic activity of layered HNbMoO 6 for liquid-phase Friedel–Crafts alkylation are examined. 31 P MAS NMR spectroscopy using trimethylphosphine oxide as a probe molecule reveals that HNbMoO 6 possesses strong acid sites in the interlayer region. Layered HNbMoO 6 is demonstrated to display remarkable catalytic performance for this reaction, substantially exceeding the activities of niobic acid, niobium–molybdenum mixed oxide, ion-exchange resins, and zeolites. It is determined that benzyl alcohol is intercalated into the HNbMoO 6 interlayer during alkylation to form a monolayer configuration, allowing the strong interlayer acid sites to participate in the reaction.
