Research Abstract |
Solid superacid catalysts were obtained by impregnating hybroxides or amorphous oxides of Zr, Sn, Ti, and Fe with ammonium metatungstate followed by evaporating water and calcining in air. The catalysts were active for reactions of hydrocarbons such as butanes and pentanes; the catalysts were also active for the acylation of toluene with benzoic anhydride. The maximum activity was observed with calcination at 800-850゚C for the cayalyst of Zr, 1000゚C for that of Sn, and 700゚C for those of Ti and Fe (11-13 wt% W). From DTA and XRD measurements in addition to the results of catalytic activities, it was concluded that superacid sites were not created by impregnation on the crystallized oxide, but on the amorphous form followed by calcination to the crystallization, XRD patterns being different between the materials prepared from the crystallized oxides and those from the amorphous ones. XPS showed the catalysts to be WO_3 supported on ZrO_2, SnO_2, TiO_2, and Fe_2O_3.
