To prepare the catalyst, sodium molybdate dihydrate (0.30 g; 1.2 mmol), and 4 M HCl (0.5 mL; 2.0 mmol) were added to a vial. About 1 mL of water was added to complete dissolution. Into a second vial benzyl tri-ethyl ammonium chloride (BTEAC) (0.525 g; 2.30 mmol) and ca.3 mL water were stirred until dissolved. The BTEAC solution was heated at 70 °C with stirring.To the stirred solution was added the molybdate solution dropwise. After addition was complete, the solution was stirred for an additional five minutes, then removed from heat and vacuum filtered.
