Abstract: Highly dispersed vanadium oxide supported on mesoporous SBA-16 (VOx/SBA-16) with a cubic (Im3m) pore structure prepared by impregnation method shows excellent catalytic activity for hydroxylation of benzene. Nanostructured VO4 species and crystallites of V2O5 play a key role in the catalytic reaction.

Key words: vanadium, SBA-16, highly dispersed, benzene, hydroxylation
