Selective oxygen activation

Oxygen has also been shown to insert into butadiene over a VPO catalyst, producing furan [110-00-9] (94). Under electrochemical conditions butadiene and oxygen react at 100°C and 0.3 amps and 0.43 volts producing tetrahydrofuran [109-99-9]. The selectivity to THF was 90% at 18% conversion (95). THF can also be made via direct catalytic oxidation of butadiene with oxygen. Active catalysts are based on Pd in conjunction with polyacids (96), Se, Te, and Sb compounds in the presence of CU2CI2, LiCl2 (97), or Bi—Mo (98). [Pg.343]

Electrochemical promotion, or non-Faradaic Electrochemical Modification of Catalytic Activity (NEMCA) came as a rather unexpected discovery in 1980 when with my student Mike Stoukides at MIT we were trying to influence in situ the rate and selectivity of ethylene epoxidation by fixing the oxygen activity on a Ag catalyst film deposited on a ceramic O2 conductor via electrical potential application between the catalyst and a counter electrode. [Pg.584]

Dioxygen is a cheap and ideal source of oxygen but it is very difficult to activate and there are relatively few examples of 02 oxidations catalyzed by zeolite-encapsulated complexes. Encapsulated CoPc is active for the oxidation of propene to aldehyde, whereas the free complex is inactive.104 A triple catalytic system, Pd(OAc)2, benzoquinone, and a metal macrocycle, was used to oxidize alkenes with molecular oxygen at room temperature.105 Zeolite-encapsulated FePc106-108 and CoSalophen (Scheme 7.5)107109 complexes were used as oxygen-activating catalysts. With the use of a Ru complex instead of Pd(OAc)2 in the triple catalytic system, primary alcohols can be oxidized selectively to aldehydes.110... [Pg.255]

For DMFC systems, Pt cathodes are also used as the catalyst of choice however, given Pt s ability to reduce oxygen and oxidize methanol, this lack of selectivity makes them sensitive to methanol crossover from anode to cathode via the membrane. This methanol crossover can have a depolarizing effect on cathode performance, reducing overall cathode activity. To combat this, an extensive effort has been made to identify and develop selective oxygen/reduction catalysts unaffected by MeOH crossover. [Pg.27]

On the other hand, it is generally accepted that the redox properties of the selective oxidation catalysts control the oxygen activation as well as the surface stabilization of the oxygen activated species and their reactivity (19), In particular, the stabilization of active oxygen forms requires the presence of reduced sites on the surface. In fact, the peculiar behaviour of Mo, V and Fe oxides in selective oxidation reactions is strictly linked with the stabilization of reduced states (19), This point has stimulated a growing interest in providing correlation between the degree of reduction (32) or the extent of reduced sites (20) and the reactivity in... [Pg.49]

The studies performed over promoted manganese molybdate catalysts have shown significant changes in catalytic behavior due to presence of the promoter. The preliminary results suggest that the pronounced differences observed in selectivity and activity may be related to the effect of the promoter cations on the reactivity of the lattice oxygen and the availability of adsorbed oxygen. [Pg.352]

Light hydrocarbons consisting of oxygen or other heteroatoms are important intermediates in the chemical industry. Selective hydrocarbon oxidation of alkenes progressed dramatically with the discovery of bismuth molybdate mixed-metal-oxide catalysts because of their high selectivity and activity (>90%). These now form the basis of very important commercial multicomponent catalysts (which may contain mixed metal oxides) for the oxidation of propylene to acrolein and ammoxidation with ammonia to acrylonitrile and to propylene oxide. [Pg.101]

Propene to acrolein. Hildenbrand and Lintz87,88 have used solid electrolyte potentiometry to study the effect of the phase composition of a copper oxide catalyst on the selectivity and yield of acrolein during the partial oxidation of propene in the temperature range of 420-510°C. Potentiometric techniques were used to determine the catalyst oxygen activity, and hence the stable copper phase, under working conditions. Hildenbrand and Lintz used kinetic measurements to confirm that the thermodynamically stable phase had been formed (it is known that propene is totally oxidised over CuO but partially oxidised over ). [Pg.28]

Morrison [232,233] finds that the free energy of electrons in the bulk phase (Fermi energy) is about the same for different selective and active catalysts. He notes that this value is very near (or just above) the electron exchange level of oxygen and hence makes reduction of oxygen possible. [Pg.243]

The field is defined here around the activation of butane, propane and ethane plus the oxidation of propene. The reason for this boundary is the similarity of the chemistry and the great need to understand the mechanism of selectivity of activated oxygen in these multi-step reactions. The processes cannot be conducted at high temperatures such as with methane activation as the target products are not stable under conditions where alkane activation is fast. The selective oxidation of... [Pg.4]

The fact that the active site is already partly reduced will diminish its ability (nucleophilicity) to activate all C—H bonds. In this way the oxygen activation on a site that is partly reduced will create a situation in which oxygen transfer can occur selectively without simultaneous activation of many reactive sites at the alkoxide. Obviously, for such a fortunate situation no external regeneration of the active site by lattice oxygen or by withdrawal of electrons to distant electron sinks (phase cooperation) must occur. The concept of site isolation finds in such an interpretation a natural cause a catalytic site must be constructed in such a way that its electronic structure is allowed to fluctuate between a highly active initial state and moderate consecutive states as the conversion of the substrate molecule proceeds. The site is... [Pg.11]
