Strong H2 chemisorption on Al2O3 or SiO2 supported group VIII metals

Following hydrogen treatments at high temperature a decrease in hydrogen chemisorption at room temperature is observed in almost all group VIII elements supported on SiO₂ or Al₂O₃. The effect is attributed to self inhibition by strongly chemisorbed hydrogen on the metals.

Isomerization of unsaturated compounds on Pd/Al2O3 in the presence of additives

Studies of the effect of zinc chloride and aluminium additives on the activity of a Pd/Al₂O₃ catalyst (5 wt.%Pd) in the isomerization of heptene-1, allylbenzene,p-allylphenol and 4-allyl-2-methoxyphenol (eugenol) indicate that the rate and selectivity of isomerization depend on the sequence of addition of salts and reagent to the catalytic system. The simultaneous addition of ZnCl₂ or AlCl₃ with olefin, produces a 2–3 fold increase in the isomer yield compared to ethanol.

Surface redox properties of Rh/AlPO4 and Rh/AlPO4?SiO2 catalysts

Electron donor and acceptor properties of AlPO₄ and AlPO₄–SiO₂ (2080 wt. %) supported rhodium catalysts have been studied. It was observed that the effect of metal deposition on both electron acceptor and donor properties depend on the support and precipitation agent. AlPO₄ supported rhodium showed better acoeptor than donor properties, while for Rh/AlPO₄–SiO₂, the acceptor properties were superior. However, the effect of metal on the redox properties is slight.

Hydrogenation of carbon monoxide catalysts prepared by pyrolysis of Co2(CO)8 on various oxide supports

Catalysts prepared by pyrolysis of Co₂(CO)₈ on oxide supports have been studied in the hydrogenation of CO. It is shown that MgO and -Al₂O₃-based catalysts are less active than those supported on SiO₂, TiO₂ and ZrO₂. The application of -Al₂O₃ as a support increases the relative yield of light hydrocarbons.

Liquid phase CO+H2 reactions in presence of ruthenium catalysts

Several effects on the hydrogenation of carbon monoxide in propanol in presence of ruthenium catalysts are examined. The homologation reaction is not observed, only propyl formate and propyl acetate are produced with any ruthenium catalyst. The pH-value is an important parameter: in acid media, the yield of propyl formate is noticeably increased indicating different catalytic active species. The addition of cesium salts is also benefitial for formate formation. This is not the case when water is associated with propanol as solvent. Finally, no ethylene glycol is detected. The process is found to be homogeneous and methanol seems to be the precursor of methyl formate.

The conversion of n-hexane was studied on a Pt-Sn/Al₂O₃ catalyst, a PtSn alloy and on the corresponding Pt catalysts. The results indicate the same catalytic effect of tin in supported and unsupported catalysts. It is concluded that the role of tin is connected with alloy formation.

Studies on catalytically active surface compounds, VIII. On the reaction of VCl4 with aerosil

The preparation and hydrolysis of silica supported vanadium catalysts have been investigated using VCl₄ as a paramagnetic probe. Chemical analysis shows the possibility of the VCl₄ molecule to react one, two, or three hydroxy groups of the surface. The type of reaction is influenced by the temperature of pretreatment of aerosil (TPA). ESR measurements show distortions of the tetrahedral coordination of the (SiO)_nVCl_4–n surface complex, which is strongest for the threefold attachment (n=3) of VCl₄ to the surface. Hydrolysis is accompanied by an increase of the coordination number and leads to highly mobile vanadium species.

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.

Hydrogen pressure dependence of the reaction of neopentane with hydrogen over Pd/SiO2 and Pt/SiO2 catalysts

H₂ pressure influences in different ways the reaction rates of neopentane conversion over Pd/SiO₂ and Pt/SiO₂ catalysts. It seems that on Pt/SiO₂ both isomerization and hydrogenolysis involve a common surface intermediate (probably an adalkyl), whereas on Pd/SiO₂ the hydrogenolysis goes via more dehydrogenated species than those involved in isomerization.

SO2 adsorption on hydroxylated alumina

Gravimetric measurements show that SO₂ is chemisorbed on fully hydroxylated alumina samples. Infrared results from SO₂ adsorption on silica indicate that the species are not hydrogen-bonded. Experiments carried out with preadsorption of CO₂ on alumina provide evidence that SO₂ interacts with free hydroxy groups leading to-SO₃H species.

Decomposition of isopropanol on V2O5 of different grain morphology and its relation to o-xylene oxidation catalysts

Decompositon of isopropanol has been studied on V₂O₅ samples of different morphology. It has been shown that the selectivity to acetone increases with the increase in the fraction of (010) plane of V₂O₅ on the sample surface, whereas the selectivity to propene decreases. The results are compared with previous data of o-xylene oxidation on the same samples and discussed in terms of the model of V₂O₅ surface [7].

IR spectra of oxygen adsorbed on SnO2

IR spectra of oxygen adsorbed on SnO₂ with and without lattice defects have been studied. At low temperatures oxygen is adsorbed on defect SnO₂ in two forms of O ₂ ^– . This supports the earlier results obtained by ESR. The low-temperature forms of adsorbed oxygen (unrevealed in ESR spectra) were detected on defectless SnO₂. High-temperature forms of adsorbed oxygen appear in the IR-spectra as bands due to vibrations of the cation-oxygen bond.

Influence of thermal treatment and rehydration of Al2O3 on the amount of Al3+ ions migrating into HCl solution

The amount of Al³⁺ ions migrating into HCl solution from unit surface of Al₂O₃ grows with increasing oxide calcination temperature up to 1123 K, remains unchanged up to 1373 K and then, after the formation of -Al₂O₃, rises sharply. Preliminary rehydration of the surface - and -Al₂O₃ relatively decreases their amount.

Catalytic and physico-chemical properties of a doped MoO3/SiO2 catalyst used in propylene oxidation

Oxygen chamisorbed at low temperature on a doped MoO₃/SiO₂ catalyst has been used to evaluate the dispersity of molybdena. The time on stream seems to increase considerably the dispersity of active phase, also observed by Scanning Electron Microscopt (SEM). IR spectroscopy and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) analysis have shown interaction between Te and Mo oxides. A weak complex of propylene on the surface, and carboxylate species on the oxidized surface have been detected.

Temperature programmed desorption of NH3 and H2O from NH4NaX and CoNH4NaX zeolites

A study has been made of temperature programmed desorption (TPD) of NH₃ and H₂O from samples of NH₄X and CoNH₄X zeolites of various degree of exchange. NH₃ TPD peaks could be explained by interaction of NH₃ with different Brönsted and Lewis acidic centers. Moreover a water peak at high temperatures allowed interpretations of the dehydroxylation, and by reason of the characteristic desorption temperatures a particular state of the Co²⁺ ions in the CoNH₄X zeolites is postulated.
