Visible light-induced photoepoxidation of propene by molecular oxygen over chromia-silica catalysts.
Highly dispersed chromate species on silica catalyse the selective epoxidation of propene to propene oxide (PO) by molecular oxygen under visible light irradiation with the same quantum yield as that under UV light irradiation.
