Abstract

Metal(IV) phosphates of tin, zirconium and titanium in different morphological forms, viz. amorphous, calcined and crystalline, have been used as catalysts for selective cyclodehydration of 1,4-butanediol to tetrahydrofuran. A comparative study of the three catalysts for the above reaction has been carried out to understand the effect of their composition and morphology on the catalytic activity.
