Pt/Sn-containing MFI zeolites prepared by one-pot hydrothermal methods are highly active and selective catalysts for propane dehydrogenation. An alternative preparation method is reported alongside an in-depth characterization of Pt Sn before after reaction. species dispersed on highly-defective Silicalite-1 show a significantly long catalytic lifetime with improved coke resistance, but increas...

Rhodium atoms for alkane dehydrogenation Nanoparticles of rhodium dispersed on metal oxides are generally poor catalysts because the reactants bind too strongly to metal. Hannagan et al. performed first-principle calculations indicating that single in a copper surface should be stable and selective conversion propane propene hydrogen. Model studies embedded (111) revealed very high selectivity ...

One-pot reactions leading to highly functionalized coumarins have been developed via a Pd(II)-catalyzed dehydrogenation-oxidative Heck-cyclization process.

Supported coinage-metal catalysts were prepared by strong electrostatic adsorption and used to assess the performance of silver copper in oxidative dehydrogenation methanol formaldehyde.

The CO 2 -assisted oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane (ODH-CO ) attracts a lot research interest since it combines greenhouse gas utilization with the production valuable chemicals.

A quantitative method based on UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) was developed that allows determination of the fraction of monomeric and polymeric VO(x) species that are present in vanadate materials. This new quantitative method allows determination of the distribution of monomeric and polymeric surface VO(x) species present in dehydrated supported V(2)O(5)/SiO(2), V(2)O(5)/Al(2)O...
