Oxo- and imido-vanadium(V) metal complexes supported by bis(phenolate)-functionalized N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands were synthesized structurally identified. In the presence of [(Ph3P)2N]Cl ([PPN]Cl), saturated NHC oxo-vanadium showed activity in coupling CO2 cyclohexene oxide (CHO) into cis-cyclohexene carbonate (cis-CHC). More importantly, complex bearing less electron-donating benzann...

Arya Stark Instructor: Dr. Scott Oliver TA: Yashar Abdollahian Chem 151L, Section 01C Abstract. In this experiment, oxobis(2,4-pentanediono)vanadium(IV) is synthesized from a mixture of vanadium(V) oxide, sulfuric acid, acetylacetone, and ethanol. The reaction took place over heat, and came to completion when the original mixture turned blue. The solution was then filtered, neutralized, and rec...

Density functional theory is employed to study structure and stability of small neutral vanadium oxide clusters in the gas phase. BPW91/LANL2DZ level of theory is used to obtain structures of VOy (y=1-5), V2Oy (y=2-7), V3Oy (y=4-9), and V4Oy (y=7-12) clusters. Enthalpies of growth and fragmentation reactions of the lowest energy isomers of vanadium oxide molecules are also obtained to study the...

Solid-state wide-line, magic-angle spinning (MAS) and pulse excitation (nutation) NMR techniques are applied in a study of local environmeots in two-dimensional vanadium(V) oxide surface layers on titania and alumina supports. Two main surface vanadium oxide species with different bonding environments are detected, which are, on the basis of their anisotropic chemical shift and nuclear electric...

The surface of an activated vanadium phosphorus oxide (VPO) catalyst was investigated by means of in situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy in the total electron yield mode. We observed significant changes of the V L3-near edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) when the material was transferred from room temperature to working conditions at 400°C in the reaction atmosphere. We studied the sa...

The use of different vanadium sources in the synthesis multi-metal MoVTeNb oxide catalysts has been investigated for their effect on physicochemical properties catalysts. Metal oxides were synthesized by slurry method assisted with a microwave irradiation. Vanadium pentoxide (V2O5), vanadyl sulphate (VOSO4) and ammonium metavanadate (NH4VO3) used as sources, respectively. X-ray diffraction (XRD...

Fuel oil used in power plants contain metal impurities like Vanadium. After combustion, this metal remains in boiler fuel ash in the form of oxide. In this research, extraction of Vanadium oxide from fuel ash has been investigated. Two processes were used for this purpose. A pyro- hydrometallurgy and a hydrometallurgy process. In the pyro-hydrometallurgy process, using sodium carbonate, salt ro...

Supported vanadium oxide catalysts contain a vanadium oxide phase deposited on a high surface area oxide support (e.g., Al2O3, SiO2, TiO2, etc.) and have found extensive applications as oxidation catalysts in the chemical, petroleum and environmental industries. This review of supported vanadium oxide catalysts focuses on the fundamental aspects of this novel class of catalytic materials (molec...
