The C-O hydrogenolysis of Erythritol to Butanodiols was studied in aqueous solution at 473 K and 25 bar of H2 using Rh/ReOx/TiO2 and the monometallic Rh/TiO2 and ReOx/TiO2 catalysts. The solids were characterized by temperature programmed reduction (TPR), TEM and XPS. TPR and XPS showed that ReOx species are close to Rh particles leading to reduction at lower temperature than Re on monometallic catalyst. However, some segregated Rhenium species were suspected by TPR profile for the bimetallic catalyst and detected by TEM.  Re/TiO2 exhibited low activity forming only products from dehydration and epimerization. Although Rh/TiO2 showed high activity (total conversion at 14 h), was more selective to C-C cleavage leading to lower carbon products. Rh/ReOx/TiO2, showed instead, a good activity and selectivity towards C-O hydrogenolysis route yielding 37.5% of Butanodiols. Activation energy and reaction orders on ERY (0.58) and H2 (0.53) were estimated from experiences made at different reaction conditions

Abstract The series of bimetallic Co and Mn supported on hydroxyapatite catalyst were prepared by successive deposition method and examined for CO oxidation. The CO oxidation activity was compared with monometallic Mn/HAp and Co/HAp. The catalysts are characterized in detail and correlated to the oxidation activity. The XRD, XPS and TPR characterization showed the presence of more facile Co2+, Mn3+ and adsorbed oxygen due to the interaction between Mn and Co. The 0.4 mol Mn and 0.1 mol Mn deposited on HAp showed formation of maximum active species. The maximum CoO species was observed over bimetallic catalyst compared to the monometallic catalyst. These active lower the activation energy require for CO and oxygen. These species were responsible for the oxidation of CO at lower temperature compared to the remaining catalyst.

Acetone transformation catalyzed by HZSM-5 and NaZSM-5 zeolites and by zeolites modified with basic oxides was studied in an integral reactor at a temperature of 350 °C. Modification of acido-basic properties of ZSM-5 zeolites resulted both in the total conversion changes and in the essential changes in the product composition. Isobutene was found to be the main product over HZSM-5 zeolites exhibiting low activity, while aromatics prevailed when high conversion level was attained. Classical condensation of acetone yielding mesityloxide and phorones was observed over NaZSM-5 zeolites impregnated with CaO and ZnO.

The well-defined NaGdF4:Yb,Er nanorods (NRs) with various aspect ratios were synthesized using a facile hydrothermal method. The morphology and crystal phase of NRs could be controlled by reaction conditions. NaGdF4:Yb,Er NRs with various aspect ratios could be synthesized and their upconversion (UC) luminescence was tuned. It is displayed that the NRs with aspect ratios about 5 exhibited the strongest UC luminescence among samples. The growth mechanism and morphology transition of NRs had been deduced by schematic diagram. And UC mechanism had been determined by energy level diagrams. Compared with previous reports, the work provided a facial method for UCNRs with various aspect ratios at lower temperature.

We investigated the synthesis of nanosized Co3O4 oxide by the polymerization-combustion technique, with different concentrations (3, 12 and 25% w/w) in the ethanol oxidation reaction. Characterization was done by X-ray fluorescence analysis, X-ray diffraction, temperature programmed reduction, scanning and transmission electronic microscopy and CO and H2 chemisorption. Principal results from physicochemical characterization show that the concentration of the metal oxide influence the product distribution and selectivity under isothermal conditions at 420 °C showed the formation of intermediate etoxi-species and preferential dehydrogenation reaction on stream of material. Specific concentrations result in high conversions and H2 selectivity under present reaction conditions.

The efficiency of Au/TiO2 based catalysts in 1-phenylethanol oxidation was investigated. The role of support modifiers (La2O3 or CeO2), influence of gold loading (0.5% or 4%) and redox pretreatment atmosphere, catalyst recyclability, effect of oxidant: tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) or O2, as well as the optimization of experimental parameters of the reaction conditions in the oxidation of this alcohol were studied and compared with previous studies on 1-octanol oxidation. Samples were characterized by temperature-programmed oxygen desorption (O2-TPD) method. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurements were carried out for used catalysts to find out the reason for deactivation in 1-phenylethanol oxidation. The best catalytic characteristics were shown by catalysts modified with La2O3, regardless of the alcohol and the type of oxidant. When O2 was used, the catalysts with 0.5% Au, after oxidative pretreatment, showed the highest activity in both reactions. The most active catalysts in 1-phenylethanol oxidation with TBHP were those with 4% Au and the H2 treatment, while under the same reaction conditions, 0.5% Au and O2 treatment were beneficial in 1-octanol oxidation. Despite the different chemical nature of the substrates, it seems likely that Au+(Auδ+) act as the active sites in both oxidative reactions. Density functional theory (DFT) simulations confirmed that the gold cationic sites play an essential role in 1-phenylethanol adsorption.

The present study has undertaken the Friedel-Crafts benzylation of aromatics over the V2O5/ZrO2 catalysts systems. Catalysts with different V2O5 content (0-15wt %) was prepared by wet impregnation method and characterized by XRD, BET surface area, FTIR and 5’V NMR techniques. The surface acidic properties were determined by temperature programmed desorption of NH3, cumene cracking and perylene adsorption. Under the optimized reaction conditions, these catalysts are found to be very effective and considerably more selective than the conventional homogeneous Lewis acid catalysts. The investigation of vanadia systems-catalyzed benzylation of o-xylene with benzyl chloride revealed that the catalytic activity and product selectivity are sensitive to the precise reaction parameters and can be related to the Lewis acidity of the systems. The reaction is found to be very clean and produces the desired monoalkylated product with high yield.

Four VPO catalysts were synthesized through intercalation and exfoliation in various alcohols and subsequent reduction of the exfoliated VOPO4sheets with various alcohols to produce VOHPO4⋅0.5H2O. The resulting VOHPO4⋅0.5H2O that undergoes the intercalation-exfoliation-reduction (IER) process will be further activated into VPO catalysts, and addition of 1 mole % Bi(NO3)3⋅5H2O in the first stage of this experiment has also being investigated. The synthesized materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), and temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) in H2. Catalytic evaluation of the IER-treated and Bi-doped VPO catalysts was also studied on microreactor. The VPO catalyst produced through IER using 2-butanol and ethanol with addition of Bi, IERC(2Bu-Et)RBi1, gave the highest MA selectivity due to reactive O2−species released from the additional crystalline V5+phase formed by doping 1% bismuth as promoter (O2−-V5+pair) at relative lower temperature. Nevertheless, the VPO catalyst produced through IER using isobutanol, IERC(isoBu), gave the highest activity due to high amount of reactive O−species released from V4+phase (O−-V4+pair) whereby the IERC(isoBu) catalyst synthesized consists of high percentage of V4+(93 %).
