Abstract
Dispersion of vanadium and molybdenum phosphates on titanium oxide (anatase) below the monolayer gives good catalysts for direct oxidation of ethane to acetic acid. By comparison with the dispersion of only vanadium phosphate, the higher selectivity to acetic acid for vanadium and molybdenum phosphates has been explained by an interaction between molybdenum and vanadium as it can be deduced from electron spin resonance and laser Raman spectroscopy studies.
