Synthesis of nitrogen-containing ordered mesoporous carbon as a metal-free catalyst for selective oxidation of ethylbenzene

Chem Commun (Camb). 2014 Aug 21;50(65):9182-4. doi: 10.1039/c4cc03372h.

Abstract

Nitrogen-containing ordered mesoporous carbon (NOMC) was synthesized by using m-aminophenol (MAP) as a carbon and nitrogen co-precursor via a co-assembly process with F127 in aqueous phase and exhibited a good catalytic performance for selective oxidation of ethylbenzene.
