vanadium phosphorus oxides (vpo) has been applied as a heterogeneous catalyst in gas phase oxidation reactions and its application is very limited in liquid phase. in this study a series of cobalt-doped vanadium phosphorus oxides (vpo-co) catalysts with different loading of co (0.01-1.0 mol ratio of co/v) were prepared. oxidation of benzyl alcohol was studied in the liquid phase over vpo and vp...

Macrocycles and p-benzoquinones (p-BQ) have been generally connected as potential co-synergist redox models in aerobic oxidation. To get insight for the synergist oxidation of hydroquinones (H2Q), thus, we synthesized and characterized dibenzotetraaza [14]annulene type macrocycles of FeIII and CoII metal ions and described by utilizing different examinations inc...

Nanosizedceria (n-CeO2) was synthesized by a facile method in 2-methylimidazolesolution. The characterization results of XRD, N2 adsorption-desorption, Raman and TEM indicate that n-CeO2 shows regular size 10 ± 1 nm, high surface area 130 m2·g−1 oxygen vacancies on the surface. A series CuO/n-CeO2 catalysts (CuCeOX) with different copper loading were prepared for preferential oxidation CO H2-ri...

In this study, the electrocatalytic activity of the Co@Pt core-shell nanoparticles toward the ethanol oxidation reaction has been investigated by cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry in acidic and alkaline media in details. The physicochemical data obtained in alkaline solution are compared to those in acidic solution. The obtained results demonstrate that while in the both media Co@Pt core...

DFT+U calculations of the structure of CeO2(111)-supported Aubased bimetallic nanoclusters (NCs) show that a strong support−metal interaction induces a preferential segregation of the more reactive element to the NC−CeO2 perimeter, generating an interface with the Au component. We studied several Au -based bimetallic NCs (Au-X, X: Ag, Cu, Pd, Pt, Rh, and Ru) and found that (Au− Cu)/CeO2 is opti...
