Popis: A series of bimetallic catalysts Pt−Mo deposited on silica, with the same (Pt + Mo) metal atom content but various Mo/Mo + Pt ratios, has been synthesized and characterized by XPS, ESR, hydrogen chemisorption, and oxygen uptake during their reoxidation after reduction, in order to determine the oxidation state of Pt and Mo and the catalyst surface compositions. They have been further tested for their activities in the dehydrogenation of cyclohexane, the hydrogenation of benzene, the hydrogenolysis of butane, and the reactions of hexane, on the one hand, and of 3-methylpentane, on the other hand, with hydrogen. Finally the kinetics of butane hydrogenolysis has been extensively studied in order to determine the equilibrium constants of butane adsorption and the rate constants of the steps of C−C bond breaking on all the Pt−Mo/SiO2 samples. The main results are that, while Pt is completely reduced in a metal state, only a fraction of Mo, which depends only on the reduction temperature, is reduced into metal....
