Hydrocarbon conversion over Pt?Re/Al2O3-ZSM-5 bifunctional catalysts. II. Sulfur resistance of Pt?Re/Al2O3 modified with ZSM-5

The sulfur resistance of Pt–Re/Al₂O₃-ZSM-5 catalyst has been investigated for normal heptane reforming. It was found that while sulfur acts as a poison for Pt–Re/Al₂O₃, it can play an important role in activity maintenance and aromatics production when ZSM-5 zeolite is present.

Ab initio investigation of the electron structure in bis-Cu+ acetylene and vinylidene complexes

[Cu(-C₂H₂)₂]⁺, [Cu(-CCH₂)₂]⁺ and [Cu(-C₂H₂) (-CCH₂]⁺ complexes have been studied by the ab initio double-zeta basis set method. It has been established that all calculated compounds are stable to decomposition into two C₂H₂ molecules and Cu⁺ cation and into one C₂H₂ molecules and the respective monocomplex. Calculation results suggest the possibility of intramolecular acetylene-vinylidene rearrangement in the coordination sphere of Cu⁺.

V2O5/TiO2 oxidation catalysts, III. Oxidation of CO on pure and sodium-doped systems

The activity of vanadia/titania catalysts in CO oxidation has been tested and found to be of the same order as that observed for unsupported vanadia; the simultaneous presence of vanadium-sodium compounds cancels the activity, probably because of the elimination of labile V=0 species at surface defects.

Toluene steam dealkylation over Rh/Al2O3. Effect of the support

Rh catalysts supported on different -aluminas were prepared and tested under identical conditions. Both catalytic activity and selectivity seem to depend on the surface concentration of acid sites. The bifunctional character of the catalyst and the role played by the support in activating the reactants are confirmed.

Temperature-programmed hydrogen desorption from water on bimetallic catalysts Ir?Fe/Al2O3

Desorption of hydrogen liberated in the process of water decomposition on bimetallic catalysts (3% Ir–Fe/Al₂O₃) at linear temperature growth was observed. In the case of iridium the amounts of desorbing hydrogen are relatively small, whereas for iron they are many times greater.

Acid-base properties of Al2O3/MgO oxides, II. Infrared study of adsorption of pyridine

Mixed oxides of alumina and magnesia were characterized by an IR study of pyridine adsorption. Three different Lewis acid sites, but no Brönsted acid sites were detected. The strongest adsorption sites are attributed to Al³⁺ cations of the alumina phase (1455 cm^–1), the weaker Lewis acid sites were assumed to be due to cations of the MgAl₂O₄ phase (1449–1443 cm^–1) and the MgO phase (1440–1438 cm^–1).

Kinetics of molecular exchange in CF3COOH complexes with proton acceptors

The kinetics of hydrogen bond dissociation and formation in solution has been studied by a lineshape analysis of the¹H NMR signals of the proton donor (CF₃COOH) and proton acceptor (DMF) between –100 and –170°C. It has been found that proton exchange is much slower than molecular exchange and it does not affect the lineshape. A stepwise mechanism has been confirmed.

On the nature of surface sites for heterolytic dissociation of hydrogen on Al2O3

A quantum-chemical analysis of the models for geminal OH groups of Al₂O₃ and of the processes of their dehydroxylation with further dissociative chemisorption of hydrogen has been carried out. Calculations were performed by the SCF MO LCAO method using STO-3G basis set in terms of the cluster approach.

A surface potential study of adsorbed oxygen species on a Bi2Mo3O12 catalyst

Bi₂Mo₃O₁₂ is a selective oxidation catalyst of propylene into acrolein. Surface potential measurements proved the presence of an equilibrium between gaseous oxygen and the O^2– species adsorbed on the surface of the catalyst, under oxygen atmosphere, in the range 538K–673K. This is in accordance with the fact that O^2– is a selective oxidation species. An oxygen adsorption mechanism is also discussed.

IR study of adsorbed piperidine dehydrogenation on oxidic or sulfided Ni?W/Al2O3 catalysts

IR spectroscopy has been used to follow the transformation at different temperatures of piperidine chemisorbed on oxidic or sulfided Ni–W/Al₂O₃ catalysts. Formation of an intermediate species, possibly tetrahydropyridine, and pyridine is evidenced. Their formation temperature on the sulfided samples accounts for the catalyst activity in pyridine hydrogenation under H₂ pressure.

Fe2O3 transformation to iron chlorides in radical chain gas-phase chlorination of methane

It has been established that the formation of iron chlorides in chain gas-phase reaction of methane chlorination is observed starting with T650 K. At Cl₂:CH₄=4:1, Fe₂O₃ is transformed to FeCl₃. With increasing methane concentration (Cl₂:CH₄=1:1), besides FeCl₃, FeCl₂ is also formed. Kinetic regularities of the reaction have been studied at 600–1200 for both gaseous mixtures.

Effect of pressure on the rate of n-heptane conversion on Pt/Al2O3 catalysts

The effect of pressure on the rates of product formation in n-heptane conversion on Pt/Al₂O₃ has been studied at 490 °C over the pressure range of 10–50 atm. It has been shown that the rate of isomerization is practically independent of pressure, and the dependence of the rates of dehydrocyclization and hydrocracking on pressure is described by simple kinetic equations. The reaction order of dehydrocyclization with respect to hydrogen tends to –2.0 at high pressures.

Acidity and oxidation activity of MoO3?UO3/SiO2 catalysts

The effect of UO₃ on the acidity of MoO₃–UO₃/SiO₂ catalysts has been studied by means of infrared spectroscopy of adsorbed pyridine. The surface acidity exhibited a maximum for the same U/(U+Mo) atomic ratio (=0.11) that yielded a maximum in total conversion for isobutene oxidation. The catalytic properties for oxidation are discussed in terms of the acidic properties of the samples.
