Au nanoparticles are efficient catalysts for selective oxidations. The interaction between Au nanoparticles and supports is critical for achieving high catalytic activity. Herein, Au nanoparticles are supported on a zeolitic octahedral metal oxide based on Mo and V. The charge of Au is controlled by the surface oxygen vacancies of the supports, and the redox property of the zeolitic vanadomolybdate is highly dependent on Au loading. The Au-supported zeolitic vanadomolybdate is used as a heterogeneous catalyst for alcohol oxidation under mild conditions with molecular oxygen as an oxidant. The supported Au catalyst can be recovered and reused without the loss of activity.
