Abstract
The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of hydrogen peroxide from oxygen or oxygen-delivering substances and hydrogen or hydrogen-delivering substances in the presence of at least one catalyst containing a metal-organic framework material, wherein said framework material comprises pores and a metal ion and an at least bidentate organic compound, said bidentate organic compound being coordinately bound to the metal ion. The invention further relates to a novel material consisting of said metal organic framework material wherein the material is brought in contact with at least one additional metal.
Claims11
A process for preparing hydrogen peroxide comprising:
- reacting oxygen or an oxygen-delivering substance with hydrogen or a hydrogen delivering substance, in the presence of a catalyst,
- wherein the catalyst comprises a metal-organic framework material having pores and comprising at least one metal ion and at least one at least bidentate organic compound coordinately bound to the metal ion and wherein the metal-organic framework material further comprises at least one additional metal selected from the group consisting of metals of groups Ia, IIa, IIIa, IVa to VIIIa and Ib to IIIb of the periodic table.
