Abstract: | The selective oxidation of propane to acrylic acid is studied over a series of nearly pure M1-phase MoVTeNbO x catalysts. Quantitative analysis of the reaction network shows that the ratio of the rate constants for propane oxidative dehydrogenation to propene and for the further oxidation of propene is constant. The rates towards acrolein and acetone, however, vary subtly with the concentration of vanadium and the location of its substitution. The reaction of acrolein to acetic acid and carbon oxides, associated with accessible metal cations, contributes two-thirds towards the non-selective pathway. The other third is associated with acetone formation. Vanadium is first substituted selectively at sites that are inactive for propane activation. Depending on the selectivity of this substitution two groups of materials have been identified, which show a distinctly different dependence on the concentration of vanadium. Statistic distribution of vanadium in the M1 phase appears to be the most promising strategy to improve the performance of MoVTeNbO x catalysts for a given vanadium concentration. |
