Abstract

The interaction of acetone with MoO3·Al2O3 catalysts of low MoO3 content (<10 w/w %) yields mainly tri- and tetramethylbenezenes, as opposed to isobutane and CO or CO2 in MoO3-richer systems. The variations in product distribution with composition appear to be interpretable on the basis of the gradually changing surface acidity of the catalytic system; there is no need to assume differences in molybdenum coordination for explaining the results.

Abstract

Взаимодействие ацетона с катализаторами MoO3.Al2O3 с низким содержанием MoO3 (<10 вес.%) приводит, в основном, к образованию три-и тетраметилбензолов, в противоположность системам с бользим содержанием MoO3, приводящим к образованию изобутена, CO и CO2. Изменения в распределении продукта с составом можно обьяснить на основе постепенного изменения кислотности поверхности каталитической системы. Для обьяснения результатов, т.о., отпадает необходимость в предположении различия в координации молибдена.
