Abstract
Various metal oxides (MgO, Al2O3, SiO2, TiO2, ZrO2, Nb2O5, and CeO2) were treated with NH3for incorporating nitrogen into the structure of metal oxides. The pristine and NH3–treated metal oxides were used as solid base catalysts for isomerization of glucose to f7ructose in water. SiO2and Nb2O5showed a large increment of nitrogen content by the treatment with NH3. FT-IR study on NH3–treated SiO2revealed that NH3reacted with terminal silanol groups and siloxane bonds to form Si-NH2and Si-NH-Si groups. Meanwhile, nitrogen was incorporated into bulk crystal of Nb2O5, causing amorphization of the crystal. Of all the samples, pristine and NH3–treated MgO showed highest catalytic activity for the isomerization of glucose. However, the selectivity to fructose was low due to subsequent reactions of formed fructose. Catalytic activity of Al2O3and SiO2was increased by the treatment with NH3, while that of the other metal oxides was not affected. Particularly, the catalytic activity of SiO2emerged after the treatment with NH3and was enhanced by increasing the temperature for the treatment up to 800°C. While fructose was consumed by subsequent reactions over MgO, decreasing the selectivity, such reactions of fructose were not noticeable over NH3–treated SiO2. Consequently, NH3–treated SiO2showed higher selectivity to fructose and gave higher carbon balance than MgO.

Abstract
In the present study, we investigated the influence of the addition of O2to the H2reactant stream during the hydrogenation of NO2–in water on the catalytic performances of Al2O3–supported precious metal catalysts including Pd, Pt, Ir, Rh, and Ru with 0.3 mmol g–1of the metal. Pd/Al2O3showed high selectivity for N2irrespective of the presence and absence of O2, and Rh and Ru/Al2O3were inactive towards the hydrogenation of NO2–even in the absence of O2. In contrast, while Pt/Al2O3showed high selectivity for NH3(90%) in the absence of O2(PH2= 0.2 atm and PO2= 0 atm), the product drastically changed to N2with 93% selectivity when O2was added (PH2= 0.2 atm and PO2= 0.1 atm). Since Pt/Al2O3 was completely inactive towards the oxidation of NH3 with O2 in water under the reaction conditions, oxidative decomposition of the formed NH3was not the reason for the high selectivity for N2in the presence of O2. Kinetic analysis of the reaction in the absence and presence of O2and studies on the effects of the Pt size suggested that hydrogen atoms activated on the Pt particles were mainly consumed by O2upon H2O formation in the presence of O2. We concluded that the inactivation of the Pt sites active for NH3formation and furthermore the change in the function of the sites to N2formation caused by the O2addition lead to the drastic change in the selectivity from NH3to N2in the presence of O2.
- “Strong Bronsted acid-modified chromium oxide as an efficient catalyst for the selective oxidation of methacrolein to methacrylic acid”

Abstract
Gas-phase oxidation of methacrolein to methacrylic acid was carried out over an acid-modified Cr2O3/SiO2catalyst. While only total oxidation occurred over bare Cr2O3/SiO2, the acid-modified Cr2O3/SiO2showed catalytic activity for the formation of methacrylic acid. In particular, H3PW12O40strong Bronsted acid was the most effective modifier for improving both activity and selectivity. The interface between Cr2O3and H3PW12O40particles on SiO2appears to be responsible for the formation of active sites for the selective formation of methacrylic acid. The strong Bronsted acid would help the activation of methacrolein through rendering it more electrophilic, which is a key step for the formation of methacrylic acid over the present catalyst.
- “Selective Dehydration of 1,2-Propanediol to Propanal over Boron Phosphate Catalyst in the Presence of Steam”

ACS Sustainable Chem. Eng., 7 (2019) 3, 3027-3033.DOI:10.1021/acssuschemeng.8b04594
Abstract
Catalytic properties of metal phosphates were investigated for gas-phase dehydration of 1,2-propanediol to propanal in the presence and absence of steam in the temperature range of 150 – 340 °C. Boron, aluminum, and nickel phosphates showed promising catalytic activity for the dehydration reaction. Especially, boron phosphate showed outstanding catalytic activity at a low reaction temperature and high selectivity to propanal without formation of competitive dehydration products such as acetone and allyl alcohol. The catalytic activity of boron phosphate was remarkably enhanced in the presence of steam co-fed with 1,2-propanediol. The additional steam was also favorable for promoting hydrolysis of dioxolane, which is a by-product formed through acetalization of propanal, resulting in the high yield of propanal over 95%. Boron phosphate showed more durable catalytic activity and much higher yield of propanal than conventional solid acid catalysts such as ZSM-5, silica-alumina and niobium oxide that have been reported to be active for the dehydration of 1,2-propanediol.

Abstract
Modifications of propylsulfonic acid-fixed Fe3O4@SiO2with three organosilanes (C2, C8, and phenyl) were investigated to develop a magnetically separable solid acid catalyst active for hydrolysis of ethyl acetate in excess water. Among the organosilanes, triethoxy(octyl)silane was the best modifier for improvement in catalytic activity, with activity of approximately twice that of the unmodified catalyst. The catalytic activity was comparable to those of Cs2.5H0.5PW12O40and H3PW12O40anchored on hydrophobic SBA-15 if compared per acid sites, though the acid strength of sulfonic acid was much weaker than that of H3PW12O40. High hydrophobicity over the surface and around the acid sites created by the octyl group was responsible for the high catalytic activity and the high stability in water achieved. In addition to the improvement in catalytic activity, modification with the octyl group provided high stability for repeated uses of the catalyst in the reaction and there was little decrease in activity over at least four reuses. The catalyst was easily separated from the reaction solution by application of an external magnetic field.
- “The role of steam in selective oxidation of methacrolein over H3PMo12O40“

Appl. Catal. A, 570 (2019) 164-172.DOI:10.1016/j.apcata.2018.11.007
Abstract
Role of steam in selective oxidation of methacrolein with molecular oxygen over H3PMo12O40catalyst was investigated. Addition of steam to feed gas significantly enhanced both catalytic activity and selectivity to methacrylic acid, which were fivefold and twice increases, respectively, under the optimal steam pressure (PH2O= 0.13 atm). Kinetic analysis demonstrated that the addition of steam caused 200-fold increase in the pre-exponential factor for the formation of methacrylic acid, leading to the significant increase in the activity. The steam in the feed gas varied hydrous state of H3PMo12O40under the reaction conditions, while did not alter redox property, molecular and crystalline structures, and surface area of the catalyst. In the presence of steam at 573 K, three H2O per one H3PMo12O40were absorbed and hydrated protons like [H3O]+were formed in the bulk of H3PMo12O40. Methacrolein was adsorbed on the surface of the hydrous catalyst, but not on anhydrous one at all. Based on the results, it was concluded that activation of methacrolein readily occurred on the catalyst in the presence of steam, leading to the significant increase in the pre-exponential factor. Quantum chemical calculation supported the smooth activation of methacrolein by the reaction with [H3O]+without any transition state.
