Abstract

Reaction of 1-butanol with H2S has been studied at 300 °C and 0.1 MPa on catalysts of various composition. The catalysts that contain mainly strong proton sites on their surface accelerate dehydration of alcohol alone. In the presence of catalysts possessing acidic and basic Lewis sites 1-butanethiol is formed. Reaction rate increases as the concentration and strength of Lewis acid sites increase.
