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.

The materials were characterized by PXRD, N-2 adsorption-desorption, UV-Visible spectroscopy, Raman, Si-29, C-13 and V-51 solid-state MAS NMR, TEM and SEM techniques. The characterization techniques revealed that the structural ordering, morphology as well as the percentage of metal incorporation depends strongly on the hydrophobic chain length of the surfactant. PXRD, electron microscopy and N-2 adsorptiondesorption analysis confirmed that the original hexagonal structure of the material is maintained after vanadium substitution. UV-Visible, V-51 NMR and Raman analysis certified that vanadium exists in a highly dispersed state and had tetrahedral coordination with the support surface. Liquid-phase epoxidation reaction of styrene using aqueous H2O2 and TBHP as oxidants, showed that the hybrid materials were highly active and more stable than conventional vanadosilicates. The high catalytic activity and improved epoxide selectivity of the V-HMM samples is related to the more hydrophobic environment inside the pore channels than the silica channels in V-MCM-41.

The CuO supported on In2O3 or Si-MCM-41 also showed very good performance in the epoxidation but only by anhydrous TBHP. However, the CUO/SiO2 catalyst, however, showed very good performance in the epoxidation by both the anhydrous and aqueous TBHP.

MgO, CaO, BaO and SrO), Gr. IIIa metal oxides (viz. Al(2)O(3), Ga(2)O(3), In(2)O(3) and Tl(2)O(3)), transition metal oxides (viz. TiO(2), Cr(2)O(3), MnO(2), Fe(2)O(3), CoO(x), NiO, CuO, ZnO, Y(2)O(3) and ZrO(2)), rare earth metal oxides (viz.

For the epoxidation, the catalytic performance (styrene oxide yield) of the most promising nano-gold catalysts prepared by the HDP method was in the following order: Au/MgO &amp;gt; Au/Tl(2)O(3) &amp;gt; Au/Yb(2)O(3) &amp;gt; Au/Tb(2)O(3) &amp;gt; Au/CaO (or TiO(2)). However, for the oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde by molecular oxygen, the order of choice for the most promising catalysts (based on benzaldehyde yield) was Au/U(3)O(8) &amp;gt; Au/Al(2)O(3) &amp;gt; Au/ZrO(2) &amp;gt; Au/MgO. Whereas, when TBHP was used as an oxidizing agent for the benzyl alcohol oxidation, the order of choice for the most promising catalysts was Au/U(3)O(8) &amp;gt; Au/MgO &amp;gt; Au/TiO(2) &amp;gt; Au/ZrO(2) &amp;gt; Au/Al(2)O(3). The catalytic performance of a particular supported nano-gold catalyst was thus found to depend on the reaction catalysed by them. Moreover, it is strongly influenced by a number of catalyst parameters, such as the metal oxide support, the method of gold depositon on the support, the gold loading and also on the catalyst calcination temperature. Nano-gold particles-support interactions seem to play an important role in controlling the deposition of gold ( amount of gold deposited and size and morphology of gold particles), formation of different surface gold species (Au(0), Au(1+) and Au(3+)) and electronic properties of gold particles and, consequently, control the catalytic performance (both the activity and selectivity) of the supported nano-gold catalysts in the reactions. The nano-gold catalysts prepared by the HDP method showed much better catalytic performance than those prepared by the DP, coprecipitation or impregnation method; in general, the HDP method provided supported gold catalysts with much higher gold loading and/or smaller size gold particles than that achieved by the DP and other methods.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2.359</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Saxena, Samidha</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dwivedi, Reena</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bhadauria, Sheenu</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chumbhale, Vilas R.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Prasad, Rajendra</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kinetics studies and mechanism evolution of the epoxidation of styrene over nanoporous Au doped TS-1</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Polish Journal of Chemical Technology</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Au/TS-1</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">epoxidation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">kinetics</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">styrene</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Styrene oxide</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2010</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JAN</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">VERSITA</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">SOLIPSKA 14A-1, 02-482 WARSAW, POLAND</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">12</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">72-78</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;{A kinetic investigation of the slurry phase epoxidation of styrene with hydrogen peroxide has been carried out, for the first time, over nanoporous Au doped TS-1 catalyst, in a batch reactor, in the temperature range of 313-333 K.
