Liquid-phase oxidation of benzene to phenol by copper catalysts in aqueous solvent with a high acetic acid concentration
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The liquid-phase catalytic oxidation of benzene was carried out under mild reaction conditions over Cu-impregnated zeolite catalysts (Cu/NaX, Cu/HX, Cu/NaY, Cu/HY, Cu/NaZSM-5, Cu/HZSM-5, Cu/Namordenite, Cu/Hmordenite, and Cu/Hbeta) using both molecular oxygen and ascorbic acid as the oxidant and the reducing reagents, respectively. Phenol was exclusively produced as the oxidation product and no other product was detected. Among the catalysts tested in this study, the Cu/HY catalyst had the highest activity for phenol formation. H-type zeolites were more effective supports for phenol formation than the corresponding Na-type ones. The yield of phenol was found to increase with the simultaneous increase in the amounts of both the supported Cu and the added ascorbic acid. The Cu species supported on HY began to elute as Cu 2+ species in the solvent from the HY support with the initiation of the oxidation of benzene. The dissolved Cu 2+ species were reduced to form precipitated Cu 1+ species during the benzene oxidation. The homogeneous Cu species dissolved from the Cu/HY catalyst were thus suggested as mainly contributing to the phenol formation. The precipitated Cu 1+ species that had no activity for the benzene oxidation were found to be regenerated in their oxidation activity toward phenol formation by calcination of the Cu 1+ species in flowing air, although parts of the Cu species were found to be converted to aggregated CuO during the calcination.Key words: supported copper catalysts, zeolite, oxidation, benzene, phenol, oxygen, ascorbic acid.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
