Abstract:
The synthesis of titanium-containing zeolite Beta was first published in this journal in 1992 and has since proven to be groundbreaking in the development of large pore zeolites as heterogeneous catalysts with isolated Lewis acid sites. In this Viewpoint we will illustrate its significance for oxidation chemistry and heterogeneous catalyst design.
