Amino acid-assisted synthesis of TS-1 zeolites containing highly catalytically active TiO6 species

Tailoring the Ti coordination states in titanosilicate zeolites to simultaneously improve feedstock conversion and maximize the target product selectivity remains a challenge in the pursuit of high-performance catalysts for selective oxidation reactions. Herein, we provide a facile strategy to synthesize hierarchical anatase-free TS-1 (MFI-type) zeolites with tetrahedrally coordinated (TiO4) and octahedrally coordinated Ti species (TiO6). The...
