This work first reports high-efficiency epoxidation of large cycloalkenes (carbon number ≥ 7) with tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) over single-/double-/multi-unit-cell nanosheet-constructed hierarchical zeolite, which is synthesized by one-step hydrothermal crystallization using piperidine as the structure-directing agent of the microporous structure. The excellent catalytic property of the material is ascribed to its unique structural characteristic. Plenty of surface titanols or silanols on the surface of MWW nanosheets are beneficial for the formation of transition-state intermediates; a large number of intercrystalline mesopores in the shell of the material not only facilitate the formation of the intermediate for TBHP but also have nearly no hindrance for the diffusion and mass transfer of bulky cycloalkene to the above intermediates; the 12-MR side cups penetrating into the crystals from the external surface are exposed as much as possible to the reaction system because of the single-/double-/multi-unit-cell MWW nanosheet, serving as the primary reaction space for the epoxidation of bulky cyclic alkene and oxidants and providing enough space for the transition state of Ti–OOᵗBu and bulky cycloalkane. Moreover, an efficient calcination-free catalytic reaction–regeneration method is developed to overcome the challenge for the recyclability of microporous Ti-zeolite in the catalytic epoxidation of bulky cycloalkenes.
