Abstract

Positive effect of raising the pressure and water content in the reaction mixture in the oxidative conversion of propylene into acetone on a V2O5/TiO2 catalyst was observed. It was shown that the reaction occurs via intermediate formation of isopropanol, which id produced in situ as a result of the acid-catalyzed hydration of propylene and, under certain conditions, may be the main product.
