The mesoporous MCM-41 is successfully used as the support to immobilize transition metals like nickel, both in physical and chemical methods. UV-VIS spectroscopy and N2 adsorption are applied to characterizing these supported catalysts. The results of alcohols oxidation reveal that these supported catalysts have high catalytic activity as their homogenous counterpart does.
