Selective oxidation of benzene to phenol over FeAlPO catalysts using nitrous oxide as oxidant

Chem Commun (Camb). 2006 Dec 21:(47):4955-7. doi: 10.1039/b608982h. Epub 2006 Oct 9.

Abstract

A tetrahedrally coordinated iron in framework substituted microporous AlPO-5 catalysts are shown to be active and selective for the hydroxylation of benzene to phenol, using nitrous oxide as the oxidant.
