A series of highly efficient hybrid gold nanoparticle/mesoporous-silica catalysts were synthesized and employed for the solvent-free aerobic oxidation of cyclohexane to cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone under moderate reaction conditions. The catalysts were characterized by XRD, N2 adsorption/desorption, TEM and ICP-AES, which shows the active species are monodispersed gold nanoparticles.
