Other Vanadates

Other vanadate materials are also widely employed as catalysts, notably K-V-O materials in the oxidation of SO2 to sulfuric acid. Such catalysts typically contain 

MQMAS NMR has also proven to be a useful for structural characterization of other vanadates, such as LaV04 [118] and will likely become widely applied in such studies in the coming years.

Barium Pyrovanadate, BaaVaO is precipitated on addition of barium chloride to a solution of sodium pyrovanadate or of other vanadates in the presence of ammonia.3 It has more recently been prepared by the action of barium peroxide on vanadium pentoxide.4 It is a white, amorphous powder which melts above 868° C.5... 

Highly syndiotactic polypropylene was prepared by Natta and co-Workers with homogeneous catalysts formed from VCU or from vanadium triacetylacetonate, aluminum dialkyl halide, and anisole at -48 to -7 8 °C. No isotactic fractions formed. This led to the development of many effective soluble catalysts. The catalyst components and the conditions for their preparation are quite important in maintaining control over syndiotactic placement. For the most effective soluble catalyst the ratio of AIR2X to the vanadium compound must be maintained between 3 and 10. The organic portion of the organoaluminum compound can be either methyl, ethyl, isobutyl, neopentyl, phenyl, or methylstyryl. " In addition to VCI4 and to vanadium triacetylacetonate, various other vanadates can be used, like [ VO(OR)/ l3 c], where x = 1,2, or 3 The exact nature of the vanadium... 

In other vanadates, octahedral co-ordination is adopted, but again with...
