Abstract

A novel and green route is reported for the selective oxidation of cyclopentene oxide to glutaraldehyde by using aqueous H2O2 as the oxidant and WS2@hexagonal mesoporous silica (WS2@HMS) material as the catalyst, which shows a very large surface area, high efficiency, excellent selectivity and outstanding reusability.
