The oxidation reaction with Na2S2O4/TBHP (tert-Butyl hydroperoxide) mixture shows total selectivity and excellent efficiency under desired reaction times. The heterogeneous catalyst displays high reusability and stability for the ten consecutive reactions without decreasing in yield and selectivity. To identify radical species responsible for the oxidation process, selective radical scavenging experiments were performed and a purposed oxidation mechanism was discussed.}, keywords = {Heterogeneous catalysis,Bimetallic MOFs,Alcohol oxidation,STA-12}, url = {https://www.inorgchemres.org/article_120398.html}, eprint = {https://www.inorgchemres.org/article_120398_16354805da0b4f6bdf8ad9fcc3b84bfc.pdf} }
