Summary

  1. 1.

    In the hydrogenation and dehydrogenation of hydrocarbons and alcohols on oxide and sulfide catalysts, the hydrogen atoms of the reacting molecules are bound predominantly by oxygen and sulfur atoms of the catalyst. The difference in the mechanisms of dehydrogenation on oxides and metals is explained by the chemical difference of these classes of compound.

  2. 2.

    The higher dehydrogenation temperature on oxides in comparison with metals is explained by the high energy of formation of the free valence of oxygen.
