Ammoxidation of Toluene over TiO2(B)-Supported Vanadium Oxide Catalysts
TiO2(B) was used as a support for vanadium oxide with loadings in the range 1/4 to 10 theoretical layers. The vanadium could be separated into two parts, which were soluble and insoluble in NH3(aq), respectively. Insoluble vanadium, in an amount corresponding to a complete monolayer at high loadings, was present as V4+ in freshly prepared catalysts. Diffuse reflectance FTIR spectroscopy was used t
