Popis: A series of hierarchical mesoporous TS-1 zeolites with MFI structure were successfully synthesized via hydrothermal route using amphiphilic organosilanes as pore directing templates. These materials were characterized by nitrogen sorption (for surface area, pore volume and pore size distribution), FTIR, SEM and UV–Visible spectroscopy. These materials are efficient catalysts for liquid phase epoxidation of olefins using TBHP as the oxidant. All these TS-1 samples oxidized cyclohexene selectively into epoxide. For the TS-1 sample with 4.4 % Ti complete conversion of cyclohexene into epoxide was observed.
