Abstract: | MCM-48, SBA-15, MCF, and MSU mesoporous silicas were used as supports for a deposition of Fe oxide species. Iron was introduced using two different methods: the wetness impregnation and the molecular designed dispersion (MDD). The obtained catalysts were characterized with respect to their textural parameters (BET), chemical composition (electron microprobe analysis), and reducibility (TPR). The coordination environment of Fe was determined using EPR and UV-vis/DRS. The samples were tested as catalysts in the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene to styrene in the presence of N(2)O. An influence of Fe dispersion and reducibility on the catalytic activity was discussed. Isolated Fe(3+) species appeared to be more selective in the styrene formation, whereas iron oxide clusters showed a higher selectivity in total oxidation of aromatic hydrocarbons. The reaction system was well described by the Mars- van Krevellen mechanism. |
