Abstract
1. A study has been made of the oxidation of ethylene and propene in presence of various catalysts (V2O5 V2O4 MgCr2O4. 2. By observations on the oxidation of ethylene and propene with heavy oxygen in presence of oxidative catalysts, the varying extents to which the oxygen,of the catalyst participates in the process have been demonstrated. 3. A relation has been established between the formation of products of the partial oxidation of the hydrocarbons (aldehydes) and the extent to which the oxygen of the catalyst participates in the oxidation reaction. 4. The application of the mass spectrometer method of analysis to the reaction products from the catalytic oxidation of hydrocarbons has enabled us to explain the diffferent mechanisms of the oxidation reactions at dffferent catalysts.
