Published: September 2012

Kinetic and DFT studies revealed that protonation of Ti-containing polyoxometalates (Ti-POM) lowers significantly the energy barrier for the heterolytic oxygen transfer from the Ti hydroperoxo intermediate to the alkene, increasing the activity and selectivity of alkene oxidation.
