The Direct Epoxidation of Propene in the Explosive Regime in a Microreactor—A Study into the Reaction Kinetics [PDF]
The usage of a microreactor system for the direct epoxidation of propene over a gold-titania-based catalyst system using a mixture of hydrogen, oxygen, and propene allows for the safe operation of the reaction in the explosive regime. A kinetic study was performed on the effect of the concentration of hydrogen, oxygen, and propene on the reaction rate ...

The Epoxidation of Propene over Gold Nanoparticle Catalysts [PDF]
Many gold nanoparticle catalysts on titania, silica, and titanosilicate supports are compared in the hydro-epoxidation of propene. All catalysts tested were active in the propene epoxidation, with Au/TiO2 showing the highest activity at low temperature, but also a high rate of deactivation. It is shown that the deactivation of the catalysts is directly

New mechanistic insight in the gold-based propene epoxidation [PDF]
Propene oxide is a very important intermediate for the synthesis of commercial products, including adhesives, paints, and cosmetics. The gas-phase epoxidation of propene over Au/Ti-based catalysts is an intriguing scientific topic, not only because of the industrial importance of the production of propene oxide, but also because this reaction offers ...

Processes and possibilities for the epoxidation of propene
Propene oxide, one of the mayor commodity chemicals used in chemical industry, is in need of a new process for its production because of the disadvantages encountered with the currently available processes. These processes, most importantly the chlorohydrin and the hydroperoxide processes, will be discussed.

A highly stable and active, Au/TiSiO2 catalyst was used to conduct an extensive kinetic study for the direct epoxidation of propene using hydrogen and oxygen in the non-explosive regime, with an aim to study the combined formation of propene oxide and water. A reaction mechanism was proposed which assumes that there are two types of Au sites: isolated,

Reaction Enumeration Based on NBO-Informed Molecular Graphs. [PDF]
NBO‐informed molecular graphs represent chemistry via valence orbitals rather than atomic connectivity, enabling consistent reaction analysis across environments. By identifying delocalized motifs and increasing complexity adaptively, the framework enables efficient exploration of inaccessible mechanisms and diverse catalytic and reaction networks for ...
