Recently, Pickering emulsions provide a green and efficient solution for interfacial catalysis. However, in an emulsion system the separation of products and the recycle of catalysts rely on time- and energy-consuming centrifugation and filtration. Herein, a straightforward emulsion assisted assembly strategy has been developed to fabricate amphiphilic polyoxoniobates (PONbs), [CnH2n+1N(CH3)3]6KHNb6O19/SiO2(Cn-Nb6/SiO2; n = 14, 16, and 18). The honeycomb-like C16-Nb6/SiO2composite not only can form stable Pickering emulsion in the n-octane/water system but also can effectively catalyze oxidative desulfurization under mild conditions. Notably, after the reaction, the oil phase and the emulsion phase were automatically separated: the clean oil was collected by decantation, while the recycled emulsion was directly used for the next run. Moreover, C16-Nb6/SiO2is highly robust and can be consecutively used for up to eleven cycles with negligible loss of its catalytic activity.
