Acio-Base properties and actvity of complex oxide catalysts for m-xylene ammoxidation

Introduction of small quantities of alkaline and alkalineearth metal oxides into supported Sb–Bi–V oxide catalysts increasses the concentration of surface basic centers and increases significantly its activity in m-xylene ammoxidation. Promoting effect is suggested to be due to the heterolytic type of the primary activation of hydrocarbon.

Hydrocarbon hydrogenolysis on nickel-tin catalysts

Hydrogenolysis of ethane, n-hexane and cyclohexane has been studied on nickel-kieselguhr catalysts modified by organic and inorganic compounds of tin. Tin additives decrease nickel reactivity with respect to C–C dissociation, which is ascribed to the formation of surface intermetallides on the catalyst.

Comparative selectivities of two copper-based catalysts: Mixed Cu?Cr and Cu?Al oxides for allylic alcohol reactions in the presence of molecular hydrogen

In the presence of mixed copper-chromium (aluminium) oxide, allylic alcohols react with molecular hydrogen and lead to several primary products. This is due to the simultaneous presence of two active sites in the mixed oxides. Copper species (Cu⁺) are responsible for hydrogenation (HYD) and the chromium (Cr³⁺) (aluminium [Al³⁺]) species for the isomerization (I) and the hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) reactions. However, the stronger acidic character of Al³⁺, compared with Cr³⁺, entails some differences evidenced by the HYD/(I+HDO) and HDO/I ratios.

In DSC studies of liquid-quenched ternary chalcogenide glasses Te₈₀Ge_20–xA _x ^V (A^V=Sb, Bi), the characteristic temperatures (glass transition and crystallization temperatures) were determined. Changes in the thermal stabilities of these glasses, depending on the element A (Sb, Bi) from group V of the periodic table and on its content in the alloy were evaluated. Moreover, the effect of changes in the glass composition on the glass formation ability expressed by the parameter K_g1 was determined.

These compounds were examined by the methods of infrared spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffractometry, UV-VIS reflectance spectroscopy, and also by the measurement of magnetic moments. The thermal stability, the stoichiometry of thermal decomposition and the mutual transformations were investigated with a derivatograph. The reactions proceeding according to the following schemes were observed if the system was heated to appropriate temperature: (I)(II)(III)(V)(IV) and (VI)(VII)(III)(V)(IV) Process (VII)(III) represents isomerization. The reversibility of the process (V)(IV) is due to the high hygroscopicity of the anhydrous complex. The changes in structure in the course of the individual processes are discussed.
