Abstract

Abstract Grafting of multiple oxo-vanadium Schiff base moieties to cyclotriphosphazene provided an efficient and recyclable heterogeneous catalyst for the regioselective oxidation of naphthols and phenols to quinones by using t-butylhydroperoxide as oxidant. One of the main advantages of the developed catalyst was the presence of multiple oxo-vanadium moieties in close proximity which made the developed catalyst more active as compared ...
