- Abstract
- Mesoporous Re–Si–Al, Re–Al, and Re–Si mixed oxides were obtained via a one-step non-hydrolytic sol–gel route followed by calcination. The texture and surface properties of the resulting catalysts were characterized by a combination of EDX, XRD, N2-physisorption, XPS, ToF-SIMS, and NH3-TPD. The loss of rhenium during calcination, the texture and the acidity of the catalysts depended on their composition. Migration of rhenium toward the surface occurred during the calcination treatment, as evidenced by XPS and ToF-SIMS. After calcination, ToF-SIMS showed the presence of well-dispersed ReOx surface species. The influence of the composition of Re–Si–Al catalysts on their performances in the cross-metathesis of ethene and butene to propene was investigated. The specific activity of the Re–Si–Al catalysts was much higher than that of Re–Al catalysts, whereas the Re–Si sample was not active. The best Re–Si–Al catalysts displayed excellent specific activities (up to 45 mmol g−1 h−1) and apparent TOF values (98 × 10−3 s−1).
