A synthetic methodology is described that allows one to target and prepare specific titanium active sites on the surface and in the framework of a silicate support.  The single-site heterogeneous titanium catalysts exhibit high catalytic activity and high selelctivity in alkylphenol oxidation to alkylbenzoquinone with aqueous hydrogen peroxide.
