Abstract

We have studied the correlation between the crystal structure and the catalytic activity of manganese oxides MnO, MnO2, Mn3O4, and Mn2O3 in liquid-phase oxidation of 1-octene by molecular oxygen. The catalytic activity decreases in the series of oxides with octahedral coordination environment for the manganese atoms MnO−Mn2O3−MnO2. The oxide Mn3O4 (with mixed tetrahedral and octahedral environment for the Mn atoms) catalyzes the process according to a different mechanism.
