Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The oxides of lanthanum, neodymium, samarium, gadolinium, dysprosium, erbium, and yttrium are active in the hydrogen transfer from n-butanol to dipropylketone and acetone and from 2-octanol to eyclohexanone; the latter reaction is most selective.

  2. 2.

    The comparative reactivities of the ketonic hydrogen acceptors in the reaction of these compounds with n-butanol is in accord with their normal oxidation potentials.

  3. 3.

    Upon the addition of ketone to n-butanol, the total extent of the catalytic conversion of n-butanol increases and the selectivity relative to ketonization decreases.
