Abstract

The catalytic reaction of CH4, with N2O at 773–823 K on a V2O5/SiO2 catalyst affords products of the partial oxidation (HCHO and CH3OH), exhaustive oxidation (CO), and oxidative condensation (C2H5OH and CH3CHO) of methane. A mechanism is proposed for the complex reaction, including the intermediate compounds V5+O∸ and V4+CH3OH as common intermediates for all the routes.
