IMMOBILIZED CYCLIC IMIDE CATALYST AND PROCESS FOR OXIDATION OF ORGANIC COMPOUNDS WITH THE SAME

摘要

To provide a solid catalyst containing a cyclic imide skeleton which is easily available and easily separable from reaction products and which is easily recovered and regenerated, and free from reaction inhibitory factors; and a process for oxidation of organic compounds with the solid catalyst. An immobilized cyclic imide catalyst having a structure represented by following Formula (1), wherein X is oxygen or an -OR group (wherein R is hydrogen atom or a hydroxyl-protecting group); n is 0 or 1; Z 1 is a five- or six-membered cyclic imide skeleton to which an aromatic or nonaromatic ring Z 2 may be adjacent; elliptically shaped moiety S is an inorganic support; A 1 is a group linking silicon atom with the cyclic imide skeleton Z 1 or with the ring Z 2 and is either a divalent hydrocarbon group or a group composed of a divalent hydrocarbon group and an amide bond (-NHCO-); and the cyclic imide skeleton Z 1 and the ring Z 2 may each be substituted.
