Abstract
Molecular Designed Dispersion (MDD) of metal complexes on a highly porous support is a novel synthesis method to prepare high quality heterogeneous catalysts. The process basically consists of two steps: (1) the anchoring of the complex onto the support in a controlled way and (2) the mild oxidation of the grafted complex towards catalytically active metal-oxide surface structures.
This article presents two typical case studies: (1) the incorporation of cationic Cu-complexes in a H-ZSM-5 zeolite from the liquid phase and (2) the gas phase modification of pure silica MCM-48, using the VO(acac)2 complex. In both cases, superior catalysts are obtained. Detailed chemical, physical and catalytical analyses of these catalysts are discussed in the text. Comparison is made with analogous catalysts, prepared by conventional methods.
