Abstract
Catalysts with manganese nanoparticles (5 and 10 wt %) immobilized on poly-4-vinylpyridine were prepared. These catalyst compositions have been used to oxidize n-heptane with pure oxygen to give alcohols, aldehydes and ketones. Oxidation of n-heptane was carried out in the temperature range 303-383 K, molar ratios of heptane:oxygen = 1:3.38, and at atmospheric pressure. It has been found that the non-crosslinked (MnP4VP polymer poly-4-vinylpyridine) and N,N- methylene-bisacrylamide-crosslinked MnP4VP/MBAA metal-polymer catalyst containing 5 wt % Mn2+ exhibits the highest activity in n-heptane oxidation reactions. The kinetic parameters of the reaction of n-heptane oxidation with oxygen at low temperatures were studied using a kinetic model based on the heptane conversion data.
