New insight into the catalytic cycle about epoxidation of alkenes by N2O over a Mn-substituted Keggin-type polyoxometalate

A catalytic cycle about epoxidation of propene by N2O catalyzed by a Mn-substituted Keggin-type polyoxometalate [PW11O39MnIIIH2O]4− has been studied by using M06L density functional theory.
