MoO3 on zeolites MCM-22, MCM-56 and 2D-MFI as catalysts for 1-octene metathesis.

ABSTRACT: Highly active olefin metathesis catalysts were prepared by thermal spreading MoO3 and/or MoO2(acac)2 on MWW zeolites (MCM-22, delaminated MCM-56) and on two-dimensional MFI (all in NH4 + form). The catalysts' activities were tested in the metathesis of neat 1-octene (as an example of a longer chain olefin) at 40 °C. Catalysts with 6 wt % or 5 wt % of Mo were used. The acidic character of the supports had an important effect on both the catalyst activity and selectivity. The catalyst activity increases in the order 6MoO3/HZSM-5(25) (Si/Al = 25) << 6MoO2(acac)2/MCM-22(70) < 6MoO3/2D-MFI(26) < 6MoO3/MCM-56(13) < 6MoO3/MCM-22(28) reflecting both the enhancing effect of the supports' acidity and accessibility of the catalytic species on the surface. On the other hand the supports' acidity decre
