Abstract
A method for obtaining copper catalysts on nonporous supports by the thermal decomposition of copper oxalate in the absence of oxygen was suggested. The catalytic properties of the catalyst were studied in the model reaction of the conversion of propanol-2 into acetone and propylene. The influence of the content of copper in the catalyst, reaction temperature, and conditions of oxalate decomposition on the degree of alcohol conversion and ratio between reaction channels was studied. Electron photomicrographs were obtained, specific surface areas were measured, and X-ray powder patterns of the catalyst were recorded.
