Brønsted Acid Property of Alumina-Supported Niobium Oxide Calcined at High Temperatures: Characterization by Acid-Catalyzed Reactions and Spectroscopic Methods

Abstract: The acidic properties of alumina-supported niobium oxide (Nb 2 O 5 /Al 2 O 3 ) calcined at high temperatures, with Nb 2 O 5 loadings of 5−30 wt % as Nb 2 O 5 , were investigated using acid-catalyzed reactions (benzylation of anisole, cumene cracking, and isomerization of α-pinene), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. Structural characterization was carried out using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) analysis.… Show more

“…Zaki et al investigated the acidic properties of supported WO3 catalysts by pyridine adsorption and reported that strong Brønsted acid sites appeared on WO3/TiO2, whereas mainly Lewis acid sites existed on WO3/Al2O3 12) . Nb2O5/Al2O3 catalysts were reported to possess both Lewis acid sites and Brønsted acid sites 13) . At 250 in Fig.…”

“…2) All of the NbO 6 units have the same cross-section. [23] On 16 wt % Nb 2 O 5 /Al 2 O 3 catalysts that were calcined at 1073 K and 1123 K, S 0 was comparable to S occupied . [24] The surface area decreases as the calcination temperature and Nb 2 O 5 loading increase.…”

“…[21][22][23] The activities of Nb 2 O 5 /Al 2 O 3 towards these reactions were proportional to its Brønsted acidity, thus indicating that these reactions occurred at the Brønsted acid sites on the Nb 2 O 5 /Al 2 O 3 catalysts.

“…A niobic oxide monolayer with distorted octahedral NbO 6 units stabilized by an alumina surface exhibited Brønsted acidity after calcination at 1123 K toward organic reactions such as benzylation of anisole, cumene cracking, and α-pinene isomerization [38,39]. The Brønsted acid sites are probably generated at boundaries between two niobic oxide monolayer domains.…”
