Popis: CuO/Al 2 O 3 was used for dehydrogenation of butenes (1-butene, cis-2-butene, and trans-2-butene) to 1,3-butadiene at 200 °C under an anaerobic condition without an excessive amount of dilution. 1,3-butadiene was selectively obtained from butenes without the formation of carbon oxides over the CuO/Al 2 O 3 catalyst. Bifunctionality of oxidation and C−H bond activation by CuO and Al 2 O 3 , respectively, were strongly required for the selective conversion of the butenes to 1,3-butadiene.
