Pyrrolidone-modified SBA-15 supported Au nanoparticles with superior catalytic properties in aerobic oxidation of alcohols.
Au nanoparticles with small sizes (2-3 nm) were effectively stabilized in the mesopores of (S)-(-)-2-pyrrolidinone-5-carboxylic acid-modified SBA-15, which showed superior catalytic properties in aerobic oxidation of alcohols, compared with pyrrolidone-free SBA-15 supported Au catalysts.
