Characterization of active species in alumina and silica supported CuCl2 catalysts by EPR

In a recent paper [1] we proposed that a Cu²⁺ species interacting with the support was responsible for maintaining the catalytic activity of CuCl₂ catalysts used in the methane oxyhydrochlorination reaction (CH₄+HCl+O₂ chloromethanes). This species was detected on Al₂O₃ and TiO₂ supports but it did not appear on SiO₂. In this paper we report EPR results which provide a direct characterization of this species and correlate well with the observed trends in activity.

Thermal properties of elastin-fatty acid complexes

Differential scanning calorimetry has been applied to study the interaction of fibrous or of soluble elastin with fatty acids and their trialanine derivatives. The DSC curves of elastin-fatty acid preparations exhibited an endothermic transition in the temperature range - 10° to + 50°. The peak temperatures and the enthalpy changes were independent of the chain length and of the saturation of the fatty acid. The interaction with the trialanine derivatives was similar to that with the fatty acids.Such interactions between elastin and lipids might take place in vivo as well, resutling in the loss of elasticity of elastin fibres and consequently in the development of arteriosclerotic lesions.

Zusammenfassung Zur Untersuchung der Wechselwirkung zwischen dem fibrösen oder lösbaren Elastin, und den Fettsäuren und ihren Trialanin-Derivaten wurde die DSC-Methode angewandt. Die DSC-Kurven der Elastin-Fettsäure-Präparate zeigten in dem Temperaturbereich von - 10° bis + 50° einen endothermischen Übergang. Die Peak-Temperaturen und die Änderungen der Enthalpie waren von der Kettenlänge und der Sättigung der Fettsäure unabhängig. Die Wechselwirkung mit den Trialanin-Derivaten war der mit den Fettsäuren ähnlich.Solche Wechselwirkungen zwischen Elastin und den Lipiden können auch in vivo stattfinden, und die Abnahme der Elastizität der Elastin-Fibern, und folglich die Entfaltung der arteriosklerotischen Schädigungen resultieren.

Redistribution kinetics of isotope molecules due to reversible bimolecular reactions with several atomic channels

Isotope kinetic equations for reversible bimolecular reactions describe the rearrangement of atoms in activated complexes. It has been established from the model reaction CH₄+HCH₃+H₂ that the isotopic homoexchange of methane via two atomic channels is given by one set of equations with different sets of parameters.

Conversion of hydrocarbons on supported catalysts prepared via decomposition of surface complexes. Preparation and properties of (Ga+Pt)/SiO2 and (Ga+Pt)/Al2O3 catalysts

The addition of gallium is shown to increase Pt dispersity and its stability to deactivation in n-hexane dehydrocyclization, to decrease the rate of n-hexane hydrogenolysis and to increase the selectivity to benzene, apparently, due to the interaction of Pt clusters with surface Ga ions.

Reaction specificity in catalysts reported to exhibit strong metal-support interactions

The specific activities of a 10% Ni/TiO₂ and a 10% Ni/SiO₂ catalyst for the hydrogenolysis of n-hexane and for the methanation reaction have been investigated. Both catalysts have very similar activities and selectivities for hydrogenolysis. However, the titania-supported catalyst exhibits a considerably greater specific activity for methanation. It is concluded that this enhancement of activity is reaction specific, and we propose a mechanism involving the adsorption of CO onto the surface of titania.

Rate constants for the chemical exchange of some amino acid anions in solutions of copper(II) ternary complexes with diethylenetriamine have been determined by the NMR method. The coordination of amino acid anions in ternary and binary species is different and ligand substitution in the Cu(II) complexes follows an associative mechanism.

Thermal desorption analysis:

Experiments on water desorption from silicate glass powders of different chemical compositions were carried out by means of DSC. In order to establish the desorption energy distributions, a model of the heterogeneous surface was applied to the thermoanalytical desorption curves, and the results are discussed together with contact angle measurements on flat polished glass samples.The maxima in the desorption curves shift to lower temperature with increasing hydrophobic character; this is caused by divalent cations such as Pb²⁺, Ca²⁺ and Zn²⁺, while alkali metal ions are responsible for an increase in the hydrophilic behaviour.

Hydrogenation of ethylene on gadolinium X, Y and L-type zeolites

It is shown that Gd-zeolites have a catalytic activity towards ethylene hydrogenation at 1 atm. This activity decreases with an increase in the SiO₂/Al₂O₃ ratio from 2.2 to 6.1 and 4.1, i.e. upon going from an X type zeolite to Y and L. For these types of zeolite the activity grows with an increase in Gd³⁺ content from 50 to 80%. Oxygen addition to the reaction mixture stabilizes the catalytic activity of zeolites.

Radical addition of methyldichlorosilane to vinyl acetate

The GC-MS method was used to identify the addition products of methyldichlorosilane to vinyl acetate. Radiation-induced addition of methyldichlorosilane to vinyl acetate produces 2-methyldichlorosilylethyl ethyl ether. The reaction follows a radical-chain mechanism. The ratio of the rate constants of methyldichlorosilyl radical addition to C=C and C=O to vinyl acetate amounts to 0.4±0.1 (303 K).

Thermal studies of lead(II) salts,VI

The kinetics and mechanisms of the thermal decomposition of lead(II) carbonate and lead(II) hydroxide carbonate have been studied over a range of temperatures and partial pressures of carbon dioxide using both isothermal and programmed heating. All stages in each decomposition are diffusion controlled and Arrhenius parameters have been determined. These values for loss of carbon dioxide are all extremely high for a diffusion process, but show a compensation effect, following the equation: logA=–5.02+0.067E The compensation effect is discussed and comparisons with other systems showing such effects are made.

Bei allen Zersetzungsschritten ist die Diffusion der geschwindingkeitsbestimmende Schritt; die Arrhenius-Parameter wurden bestimmt. Für einen Diffusionsprozess sind diese Werte extrem hoch, sie zeigen aber einen durch die Gleichung logA=–5.02+0.067E zu beschreibenden Kompensationseffekt, der diskutiert wird. Durch Vergleich mit anderen Systemen wird gezeigt, wie solche Effekte zustande kommen.

Effect of adsorbed water on the activity of MoO3 catalysts in the double bond isomerization of olefins

Adsorbed water on molybdena catalysts calcined at different temperatures, may both increase or decrease the catalytic activity, depending upon the mode of adsorption and the number of adsorbed molecules. Our results prove that Brönsted acidic hydroxy groups are principal parts of the active sites, and Lewis acidic and/or basic centers are also required for catalytic activity in the double bond isomerization of olefins.
