Abstract
A catalyst useful for oxidation reactions is disclosed. The catalyst is useful for the gas phase oxidation of alkanes, propylene, acrolein, or isopropanol to unsaturated aldehydes or carboxylic acids.
Description
TO
A USEFUL CATALYST FOR OXIDATION REACTIONS
This invention relates to a catalyst, which is useful for oxidation reactions. In particular, the invention relates to a catalyst, which is efficient in converting alkanes, alkenes or alcohols to aldehydes and unsaturated acids, and to a process for preparing these aldehydes and unsaturated acids with the use of the catalyst. The aldehydes and unsaturated acids are products
important chemicals. Of particular importance is (meth) acrylic acid. The double bond and acid function, highly reactive, of (meth) acrylic acid, makes it especially suitable as a monomer, which can be polymerized only or with other monomers, to produce polymers
important commercially. These unsaturated acids are also useful as a starting material for esterification in the production of commercially important (meth) acrylate esters. Materials derived from (meth) acrylic acids or esters are useful as sheets and
pieces of plastic, paints and other coatings, adhesives, caulks, sealants, plastic additives and detergents, as well as other applications.

The production of unsaturated acids by the oxidation of an olefin is well known in the art. Acrylic acid, for example, can be manufactured commercially by the oxidation, in the gas phase, of propylene. It is also known that the more saturated carboxylic acids can also be prepared by the oxidation of the alkanes. For example, acrylic acid can be prepared by the oxidation of propane. Such a process is especially convenient, because alkanes have
generally a lower cost than olefins. For example, at the time of submitting this application, propylene costs were approximately three times higher than that of propane. A suitable economic process for the oxidation of alkanes, as well as the oxidation of
starting materials, to the saturated aldehydes, which is commercially viable, still has to be achieved. There is continuous research in the area of new catalysts and starting materials for the production of (meth) acrylic acid and (meth) acrolein. This
research is generally aimed at reducing the cost of raw materials or increasing the performance of the oxidation process.
• - • - "^ HiiÉiiif An obstacle to the production of a commercially viable process in the catalytic oxidation of an alkane to an unsaturated acid, is the identification of a catalyst that has adequate conversion and selectivity, thus providing sufficient yield of the final product of the unsaturated acid U.S. Patent No. 5,380,933 discloses a method for the preparation of a catalyst useful in the oxidation of the gas phase from an alkane to a more saturated carboxylic acid. Prepares a catalyst by combining the ammonium metavanadate, telluric acid and ammonium paramolybdate to obtain a uniform aqueous solution.To this solution, niobium oxalate and ammonium is added to obtain an aqueous paste.The water is removed from the aqueous paste, obtain a solid catalyst precursor.This solid catalyst precursor is molded into a tablet, sieved to a particle size desired and then calcined at 600 ° C under a stream of nitrogen, to obtain the desired catalyst. The Patent Application, also pending, of the
United States of America, No. 09/316007, discloses a process for preparing a catalyst, to catalyze an alkane in a
