Heterogeneous vanadium Schiff base complexes in catalytic oxidation reactions
Abstract
The chemistry of Schiff base has received remarkable attention in different applications, both
organic synthesis and industries. Over the past few years many reports have been on the
synthesis, characterization and application of vanadium Schiff base complexes. However,
heterogeneous vanadium Schiff base catalysts are active for various oxidation reactions, making
catalytic oxidation of hydrocarbons a great interest. This review summarizes the recent
development of organic substrate oxidation with heterogeneous vanadium Schiff base catalysts.
