Benzene hydroxylation to phenol with iron impregnated activated carbon catalysts
(2006) Choi, J.-S.; Kim, T.-H.; Choo, K.-Y.; Sung, J.-S.; Saidutta, M.B.; Ramachandra, B.; Rhee, Y.-W.
Iron impregnated on activated carbon was used as catalyst for the direct synthesis of phenol from benzene. The effect of Sn addition to the catalyst was studied. The prepared catalysts were characterized by BET, SEM and XRD analysis. The catalyst 5.0Fe/AC showed good activity in the conversion of benzene and addition of Sn seemed to improve the selectivity of phenol in the reaction. � 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Molybdenum based mixed oxide containing Mo0.65V 0.25W0.10 was investigated for the partial oxidation of methanol. The structural property and catalytic activity of the mixed oxide catalyst was studied by surface area (BET), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The thermal activation of the catalyst resulted increase in the conversion of methanol and the selectivity to formaldehyde. The thermal activation of the MoVW mixed oxide in nitrogen atmospheres induces partial crystallization of a Mo5O14-type oxide at 813 K. The SEM images of the thermally activated catalyst show needle like particles. These particles were agglomerates of platelet-like crystallites of a few hundreds of nanometers in size. SEM and EDX techniques show that the mixed oxide is characterized by an inhomogeneous elemental distribution on the length scale of a few microns. XRD of the thermally activated catalyst showed a nanocrystalline material identified as a mixture of Mo5O 14, MoO3 and MoO2-type MoVW oxides. The catalytic activity of the MoVW mixed oxide show a good conversion of methanol and selectivity to formaldehyde. © 2005 Springer Science+Business Media, Inc.

MoVW-mixed oxide as a partial oxidation catalyst for methanol to formaldehyde
(2006) Ramachandra, B.; Jung, S.C.; Kim, K.-S.; Choo, K.-Y.; Sung, J.-S.; Kim, T.-H.
Mixed oxide with composition Mo0.65V0.25W 0.10Ox was synthesized and its catalytic activity for the selective oxidation of methanol to formaldehyde was investigated. The characterization by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray and Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy reveals that the prepared catalyst is inhomogeneous nanocrystalline Mo5O 14-type oxide with minor amount of MoO3-type and MoO 2-type material. Thermal activation treatment of the catalyst at 813K resulted in better crystalline sample. The overall structural analysis suggests that the catalytic performance of the MoVW-mixed oxide catalyst in partial oxidation of methanol is related to the formation of the Mo5O 14-type material. � 2006 Elsevier B.V.

The direct conversion of benzene to phenol by hydroxylation with hydrogen peroxide was carried out over catalyst containing various transition metals impregnated on activated carbon. Iron and vanadium impregnated catalysts gave better yields of phenol compared to copper impregnated catalysts. The activity of transition metals supported on activated carbon catalyst in the production of phenol was V > Fe > Cu. In addition to the role of transition metals in catalyzing the hydroxylation reaction, the hydrophobic nature of the activated carbon surface and also the surface acidity and basicity seems to have enhanced the performance of these catalysts. © 2005 Springer Science + Business Media, Inc.

The direct conversion of benzene to phenol by hydroxylation with hydrogen peroxide was carried out over catalysts containing iron impregnated on activated carbon. Iron was impregnated on various surface modified activated carbons. The catalyst that was made by treating activated carbon with nitric acid, that was treated thermally in the presence of nitrogen at 600 °C and impregnated with 5 wt.% iron, gave a phenol yield of 20%. It was found that the synergistic interactions of surface groups and the impregnated iron have enhanced the performance of these catalysts. © 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

The direct conversion of benzene to phenol by hydroxylation with hydrogen peroxide was carried out over various transition metals impregnated on MCM-41 and activated carbon. Copper-, iron-, and vanadium-impregnated on activated carbon gave better yields of phenol when compared to the corresponding reactions using cobalt-, nickel-, manganese-, and titanium-impregnated catalysts. Comparison of the MCM-41 and activated carbon-supported catalysts showed that activated carbon-supported catalysts gave a higher yield of phenol than did the MCM-41-supported catalysts. The activity of the transition metals supported on activated carbon in the production of phenol was V > Fe > Cu; the corresponding activity of the transition metals supported on MCM-41 was Cu > Fe > V. In addition to the role of transition metals in catalyzing the hydroxylation reaction, the hydrophobic nature of the activated carbon surface seems to enhance the performance of these catalysts relative to the MCM-41-supported catalysts.
