The influence of the local structure of vanadia in these catalysts on the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene with nitrous oxide was investigated. The use of N2O as a co-feed remarkably enhanced the styrene yield compared with the use of N-2. Characterization of these vanadia catalysts by XRD, FTIR, UV-vis, TPR, XPS, and V-51 NMR techniques suggests that the nature of the VOx species depends on the vanadia loading: the predominant species are monomeric vanadia at lower loadings, two-dimensional polyvanadates at intermediate loadings, and bulk-like V2O5 and AlVO4 at higher loadings. The rate of oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of ethylbenzene per vanadium atom increases with vanadia loading and reaches a maximum at 10 wt%, the loading at which the surface predominantly contains polyvanadate species. The observed variation in the selectivity of products with vanadium loading indicates that the monomeric V5+ species favors dehydrogenation, whereas bulk-like V2O5 preferentially participates in the dealkylation of ethylbenzene. The vanadium species remains at a higher oxidation state in the presence of N2O, leading to a higher styrene yield. than in a N-2 atmosphere. The ODH turnover rates increased with decreasing energy of the absorption edge in the UV-vis spectrum, at low VOx coverages of less than one monolayer on the Al2O3 surface. (c) 2005 Elsevier Inc.

This leads to the formation of precipitate, which was decomposed at 973 K. The formation of bismuth titanate was observed on calcining powders at 973 K by X-ray diffraction studies. The average particle size is found to be 100 nm by microscopy. The room temperature dielectric constant is found to be 150 at 1 kHz.

The influence of Surface acidity, cation distribution in the spinel lattice and various reaction parameters are discussed. A maximum yield of 70.9 and 22.9% with selectivity of 73.5 and 23.3% was obtained for 2,6-xylenol and o-cresol respectively, giving a total ortho selectivity of: 96.8% over ZnFeAlO4 at 350 degrees C, methanol to phenol molar ratio of 5 and WHSV of 0.6 h(-1). Catalyst characterization was made by XRD, Mossbauer spectroscopy, ammonia desorption and BET surface area measurements. Mossbauer spectroscopy reveals isomorphic substitution or Fe 3 by smaller A 13, into the octahedral sites leading to lattice distortion, Unsymmetrical charge distribution and charge transfer from iron to oxygen making it more basic and proton attracting. This helps vertical adsorption ofphenol and formation of 2.6-xylenol.

High styrene selectivity (similar to 97%) was obtained at 773 K. The characterization of catalysts with methods such as XRD, FTIR, UV-visible, TPR, NMR and Laser Raman spectroscopy suggested that magnesium orthovanadate is the predominant vanadium containing phase and the size of the orthovanadate domains increases with increasing vanadia loading. The rate of ODH of ethylbenzene per V atom increases with vanadia loading and reaches a maximum at 10 wt%. The specific activity, i.e. the conversion of ethylbenzene per unit surface area of the catalysts, also exhibited a maximum at a vanadia loading of 10 wt% leading to the conclusion that activity of these catalysts is due to the presence of very small domains of Mg(3)(VO(4))(2) on the surface of MgO rather than crystallites of bulk Mg(3)(VO(4))(2). The higher styrene yield in the presence of N(2)O can be ascribed to the ability of N(2)O to keep vanadium species at a higher oxidation state.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">0.67</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
