Periclase MgO having a nanosheet structure. The distance of the lattice planes in HRTEM is &#x2212;0.24 nm-0.25 nm. Method of preparing periclase MgO having a nanosheet structure including preparation of Mg(OCH)in methanol solution. 4-methoxy benzy alcohol (MBZ) or 4-nitro benzyl alcohol (NBZ) or a mixture thereof is added in a ration of Mg to MBZ and/or NBZ of at least 1. Water/methanol mixture is added to the system. Solvent removal and calcinations in air is performed of the mixture.

Nanosheets of MgO processing the 111 plane

The invention relates to supported polyoxometalates represented by the formula (A)[M(HO)(XWO)]or solvates thereof, wherein A represents a cation, n is the number of cations, m is the charge of the polyoxoanion, M is a transition metal, and X is an element selected from the group consisting of As, Sb, Bi, Se and Te, characterized in that the polyoxometalate is supported on a solid support selected from the group consisting of AlO, MgO, TiO, ZrO, SiO, mesoporous silica, active carbon, diatomite, clays, zeolites, polyoxometalate salts and mixtures thereof, with the proviso that the polyoxometalate salt supports are different from the supported polyoxometalates defined by the above formula, a process for their preparation and their use for the catalytic oxidation of organic molecules.
