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.

Selectivity of catalytic processes under forced cyclic operation

The influence of oscillations in the feed concentration on the selectivity of a catalytic process has been studied for parallel reactions. The selectivity increase in periodic operations depends on both the type of kinetic functions and the non-steady-state properties of the catalysts.

Effect of bond energies of a catalyst with reacting atoms on the selectivity of CO hydrogenation over metals

In hydrogenation over metals (M)_j carbon monoxide is adsorbed as a molecule. C–O bond rupture in partially hydrogenated complex, MCHOH, leads to MO and MCH₂ and then to hydrocarbons, while transformation of MCHOH into MCH₂OH gives alcohols and other oxygen-containing compounds. Selectivity towards hydrocarbons increases with increasing energy of M–O bonds.

ESR studies on stabilized cool flame of propylene

In the oxidation of propylene a sharp change in the concentration of radicals, observed when passing from the slow reaction region to cool flames, indicates the chain character of the cool flame. Unlike propane and butane, the temperature dependence of the radical concentration and the maximum self-heating are practically unchanged within 603–663 K.

ESR studies of Ziegler type catalytic systems in the presence of CO

ESR studies of the interaction between Co(C₅H₇O₂)₂ and Al(C₂H₅)₃ in presence of CO reveal the formation of paramagnetic tri- and tetra-nuclear carbonyl compounds and the consecutive formation of complexes including one, two and three cobalt atoms. Al(C₂H₅)₃ decomposition is suggested to take place on the reduced transition metal to form Co–Al clusters. Structures for the paramagnetic heteronuclear clusters is proposed.

Thermal investigation of active carbons in presence of air

Thermal analysis data on the oxidation reaction between air and active carbons obtained during activation by carbon dioxide are presented. The correlation between the modified DTA curves and the TG curves leads to the conclusion that the oxidation of active carbons in the temperature range from 20 to 1000° is a two-step process. It is pointed out that the oxidation reactions in the low-temperature region (450–550°) are governed by the oxygen content of the samples, whereas the reactions in the higher temperature region (550–850°) are controlled by the diffusion process.

Zusammenfassung Die thermoanalytischen Ergebnisse über die während der Aktivierung durch Kohlendioxid stattfindende Oxidationsreaktion zwischen Luft und Aktivkohlen werden vorgestellt. Die Korrelation zwischen den modifizierten DTA-Kurven und den TG-Kurven führte zur Schlußfolgerung, daß die Oxidation der Aktivkohlen im Temperaturbereich von 20 bis 1000° ein Zweistufen-Vorgang ist. Es wird betont, daß die Oxidationsreaktion im niedrigen Temperaturbereich (450 bis 550°) durch den Sauerstoffgehalt der Proben gesteuert wird, während er im Bereich der höheren Temperaturen (550 bis 850°) durch Diffusionsvorgänge geregelt wird.

La corrélation entre les courbes ATD modifiées et les courbes TG conduit à la conclusion que l'oxydation des charbons actifs s'effectue entre 20 et 1000°, suivant un processus en deux étapes. Dans l'intervalle des températures faibles (450 à 550°) les réactions d'oxydation sont gouvernées par la teneur en oxygène des échantillons tandis qu aux températures plus élevées (550 à 850°) elles le sont par le processus de diffusion.

Study of cyclohexane conversion on A Pt/Al2O3 catalyst under reforming conditions by a gradientless method

A common type of rate equations for hydrocarbon conversions under reforming conditions has been shown, resulting from the features of the hydrocarbons and hydrogen adsorption on the Pt/Al₂O₃ catalyst. This has been confirmed by variations in the rate of cyclohexane conversion observed upon the introduction of methane into the reaction mixture. Methane does not react but is strongly adsorbed on the catalyst surface.

Studies on catalytically active surface compounds, IX. Formation of O2? radicals on VCl4/SiO2 catalysts

The conditions for the formation of O ₂ ^– on VCl₄/SiO₂ catalysts have been investigated. It is shown that thermal vacuum treatment (TVT) of unhydrolyzed catalysts leads to partial hydrolysis of the surface vanadium complex caused by the silanol groups of the support. The ability of the catalysts to generate O ₂ ^– radicals was found to depend on the degree of hydrolysis caused by thermal vacuum treatment.

Temperature and pressure oscillations during the autooxidation of benzaldehyde

The oscillatory behavior of the autooxidation of benzaldehyde catalyzed by cobalt(II) and bromide ions can be monitored besides potentiometry and/or spectrophotometry also by measuring the temperature of the reaction system and the pressure of oxygen above the solution as a function of time. The temperature and pressure oscillations can be explained only qualitatively so far.

Thermal and some other properties of the complexes crystallizing from the system Ni(II)-en-[Ni(CN)4]2−-H2O

Seven complex compounds exhibiting the compositions Ni(en)₃Ni(CN)₄·H₂O (I), Ni(en)₃Ni(CN)₄ (II),-Ni(en)₂Ni(CN)₄ (III), Ni(en)Ni(CN)₄·2H₂O (IV), Ni(en)Ni(CN)₄ (V), Ni(en)₂Ni(CN)₄ · 2.5H₂O (VI) and-Ni(en)₂Ni(CN)₄ (VII) were prepared from the system Ni-en-[Ni(CN)₄]^2–-H₂O. 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.
