[0049]
[0050] The crystal data obtained in Example 1-3 are the same, indicating that they are the same substance, but the yields of the three methods are different.
[0051] Test Example 2
[0052] The crystal obtained in Example 1 was tested by infrared spectrum, and the results are shown in Figure 1 The peak at 964 cm -1 belongs to W=O stretching vibration, and the peaks at 525 cm -1 , 698 cm -1 , 708 cm -1 , 770 cm -1 , 892 cm -1 belong to W-O-W stretching vibration, and the peaks at 1025 cm -1 , 1086 cm -1 are caused by P-O stretching vibration, and the peak at 3463 cm -1 belongs to O-H stretching vibration. The structure of the obtained compound is:
[0053] [(CH3)4N]3K[(PW9O 32 )2(Zr3O3)]·45H2O, and the structure diagram of the obtained compound is shown in Figure 2 .
[0054] Test Example 3
[0055] The catalytic oxidation performance of the compound was studied with aniline as substrate, hydrogen peroxide as oxidant and water as solvent.
[0056] The compound was added into a parallel reactor with 0.18 mL aniline, 6 mL water, 0.61 mL hydrogen peroxide and 0.037 g compound, and the catalytic oxidation performance of the compound on aniline was studied at different temperatures and different reaction times. Based on the UV spectrum of the oil solution after the reaction, the effects of the catalytic temperature and time on the amount of the catalytic product were investigated. With the increase of the temperature (from room temperature to 80 °C), the peak intensity of the solution at 310 nm gradually increased, and the peak intensity was the largest at 80 °C. At 80 °C, with the extension of the reaction time, the intensity also gradually increased, and therefore, it can be considered that the catalytic reaction was the most thorough at 80 °C for 14 h. Figure 3 a).
[0057] After the optimal time and temperature were determined, the amount of the catalyst was changed to 0.028 g, 0.037 g, 0.047 g, 0.056 g and 0.065 g. The lower red oil drops were dissolved in methanol, and the liquid UV of each sample was tested by diluting at a constant ratio as shown in Figure 3 b. The results show that the best catalytic effect is obtained when the amount of the catalyst is 0.037 g.
[0058] Under the optimal conditions, the oil after the catalytic reaction was extracted with 5 mL methanol, and was tested in a gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer. The concentration of the product was 39.1 g / L, and the main oxidation product was azoxybenzene ( Figure 4 ), and there was a small amount of nitrobenzene. The selectivity of aniline oxidation to azoxybenzene was 98.8%.
[0059] In order to compare the effects of hydrogen peroxide and the catalyst on the reaction system, two groups of comparative experiments were set. Under the optimal temperature and time conditions, when no hydrogen peroxide was added, there was almost no red oil drop in the obtained product, indicating that the reaction basically did not occur. When no catalyst was added under the same conditions, there was a small amount of red oil drop in the obtained product, and the azoxybenzene content was 25.2 g / L by gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer detection. The conversion rate of aniline oxidation to azoxybenzene was 63.5%. The results show that the catalyst has excellent catalytic effect on the selective oxidation of aniline to azoxybenzene.
[0060] In order to verify the stability of the compound in the catalytic process, the compound after catalysis was tested by infrared spectrum as shown in Figure 5 . The infrared spectra of the compound before and after catalysis were almost the same, indicating that the structure of the catalyst did not change in the catalytic process.
