Abstract

Vapour-phase reactions of, in situ, prepared formaldehyde with methyl propionate were studied using X, Y and ZSM-5 zeolite catalysts. Base properties of these zeolites were enhanced by KOH or NaN3 treatment. The niobium and molybdenum ZSM-5 zeolite supported oxides were also tested for their catalytic activity. The results are discussed in terms of an ability of zeolite catalysts to synthesize methyl methacrylate.
