The isothermal isotopic exchange reaction of 18O2 with 16O of CrO3, MoO3, Nb2O5, WO3, V2O5, and Re2O7 supported on ZrO2 has been investigated with in situ laser Raman spectroscopy. Isotopic exchange of the oxygen atoms of the supported transition metal oxides with 18O2 is difficult and requires several successive reduction-18O2 reoxidation cycles at relatively high temperatures. The Raman spectroscopy data reveal that all the supported transition metal oxides are present as a monooxo species on ZrO2. This finding is consistent with the shifts calculated from the isotopic ratios for a simple diatomic oscillator, with the corresponding infrared spectra of the same catalysts and with the vibrational frequencies of several monooxo reference compounds. On this basis, coordination models of the molecular structures are proposed for CrO3/ZrO2, MoO3/ZrO2, Nb2O5/ZrO2, WO3/ZrO2, V2O5/ZrO2, and Re2O7/ZrO2 catalysts under dehydrated conditions. |
