Abstract: | Two Mo/SiO2 samples have been prepared by impregnation of silica gel with aqueous solution of molybdophosphoric heteropoly acid or ammonium heptamolybdate. The catalysts were studied by ESR and IR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and XPS. Their activity was measured in the reaction of thiophene hydrodesulfurization. The silica-supported P–Mo heteropoly acid, with a preserved Keggin structure of the heteropoly anion and sulfided by H2S, exhibited two times higher steady conversion in comparison with ammonium heptamolybdate supported on silica at pH=11 and calcined and sulfided at 500°C. |
