Theoretical and Experimental Chemistry Aims and scope

Abstract

The kinetics of the heterogeneous catalytic vapor-phase oxidation of acetone on vanadium pentoxide was studied under gradientless conditions at the temperature 413–453 K. The degree of conversion of acetone did not exceed 20%. The main carbon-containing oxidation products were acetic acid and carbon dioxide. Methanol and small quantities of formaldehyde and acetaldehyde were also formed. Possible mechanisms of the reaction are discussed.
