The heterogenization of a titanium(IV) silsesquioxane complex in an MCM-41 molecular sieve, by tailoring the polarity of MCM-41, results in self-assembled materials (see the space-filling model on the right) that are active, truly heterogeneous, and recyclable catalysts for liquid-phase alkene epoxidation.
