| Popis: | Highly active oxygen capable to selectively oxidize methane to methanol at low temperature can be prepared in transition-metal cation exchanged zeolites. Here we show that the α-oxygen stabilized by the negative charges of two framework aluminum atoms can be prepared by the dissociation of nitrous oxide over distant binuclear cation structures (M(II)…M(II), M = cobalt, nickel, and iron) accommodated in two adjacent 6-rings forming cationic sites in the ferrierite zeolite. This α-oxygen species is analogous to that known only for iron exchanged zeolites. In contrast to divalent iron cations, only binuclear divalent cobalt cationic structures and not isolated divalent cobalt cations are active. Created methoxy moieties are easily protonated to yield methanol, formaldehyde, and formic acid which are desorbed to the gas phase without the aid of water vapor while previous studies showed that highly stable methoxy groups were formed on isolated iron cations in iron exchanged ZSM-5 zeolites. Selective oxidation of methane in zeolites is economical but the details of the responsible active sites are still unclear. Here the introduction of divalent transition metal cations into the zeolite matrix generates alpha-oxygen atoms which are active species for catalytic methane oxidation. |
