Two types of Mo containing metal-organic frameworks, denoted as Mo@COMOC-4 and PMA@MIL-101(Cr), were synthesized respectively by a post-synthetic modification and a ship-in-bottle approach. The catalytic performance of both compounds in the epoxidation of propylene using cumene hydroperoxide (CHP) as oxidant was compared with MoO3@SiO2. A higher conversion (46.2%) and efficiency (87.4%) of CHP was observed for Mo@COMOC-4, whereas the heteropoly acids supported MIL-101 resulted in the decomposition of CHP due to its strong acidic character. Regenerability tests demonstrated that Mo@COMOC-4 could be reused for multiple runs without significant loss in both activity and stability.
